Plaça de la Reina
Pl. de la Reina, Centre, Palma, Illes Balears, Spain
Plaça de la Reina is the lively central square in Palma's old town, sitting directly in front of La Seu cathedral and the Royal Palace; it's lined with cafés and terraces and serves as a bustling gateway to the historic centre and nearby shopping streets.
What Makes It Special
What makes it special is the dramatic, uninterrupted framing of La Seu cathedral from the square — the fountain, outdoor terraces and open sightlines create one of the city's best spots for photos and people‑watching, especially at golden hour.
Insider Tips
Visit at sunrise or early evening for the best light and fewer crowds; pick a café terrace on the cathedral side for the view, and wear comfortable shoes since the historic paving can be uneven when walking around the square.
