San Martin Square

It is connected to the Main Square by the Jiron of the Union (pedestrian and shopping street lined with beautiful colonial edifices), this stately square made of white stones is highly influenced by a mix of the Louis XV French style and the Spanish style. In the center, the equestrian statue of San Martin, the Latin-American liberator. This square gives an impression of grandeur and nobility; it is lined with the Gran Hotel Bolivar, known for its luxury, and with the Columbus Theatre, the very first cinema of Lima.
