    Plaza De Azcarraga

    It was the center of social and political life, housing the Quartermaster's House, the Consistory and the Artillery Warehouse. In the center of the square stands out the Fountain of Desire, cast in the Dungem workshops of Paris in 1870. It is crowned by a sculpture of a woman carved in bronze that represents desire, and that bears in its right hand a lamppost. The fountain is framed by the planters and ash trees that surround it forming a kind of roof that covers the square. All this makes it one of the most beautiful squares in the city.
