This plaza is dominated by the famous fountain of Cibeles, the Greco-Roman goddess of nature, sculpted by Francisco Gutiérrez, a symbol of the city.Besides being one of the most emblematic plazas of Madrid, it is situated at the junction of the Calle Alcalá and the Paseo del Prado, two favourite places for city strollers.
