Plaza de San Francisco de Asís

This square, located close to the harbour is the end of the old 11 km long aquaduct, parts of which can still be found in the city. The end point of the aquaduct is the Fuente de los Leone. This fountain is an exact copy of the lions fountain in the Alhambra in Granada, Spain. It is decorated with 4 lions. It used to be the place where ships used to take in fresh water. An important building at the square is the Church of San Francisco de Asís.
