Plaza de Armas

Plaza de Armas, Arequipa

The civic heart of Arequipa, laid out when the city was founded in 1540. Sillar arcades line three sides, the long cathedral closes the fourth, and a bronze fountain crowned by the trumpeter figure called Tuturutu stands at the center beneath the volcanoes.
