What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors praise Plaza de la Soledad for its beautiful architecture, particularly the Giralda replica and historic Las Tres Campanas. It's considered a must-visit for photos and a pleasant spot to enjoy a coffee and local atmosphere, though some note the closure of shops detracts slightly from its appearance.
"Fantastic building just marred by the fact that Telefonica have pulled out of the shops below so it spoils a wonderful piece of architecture. I feel that Badajoz Council should do something about this as it's such an iconic building."
