This irregular, conspicuously vacant plaza surrounds the Estatua Ecuestre al Patriota Morelos , a majestic statue of Morelos on horseback, sculpted by Italian artist Giuseppe Ingillieri between 1910 and 1913.
Running from here to the Fuente Las Tarascas is the shaded and cobbled Calzada Fray Antonio de San Miguel , a wide, romantic pedestrian promenade framed by exquisite old buildings. Branching off its west end, narrow Callejón del Romance (Romance Alley) is all pink stone, trailing vines and cavorting couples. There are a couple of good restaurants.
