Plaza Mayor, originally "Plaza del Arrabal," is Madrid's historic square, redesigned in 1619 by Juan Gómez de Mora. Once a bustling marketplace, it hosted events from bullfights to executions. After fires, Juan de Villanueva rebuilt it with uniform arcaded buildings. Today, it's a vibrant hub with cafes and Philip III's statue.
