The main shopping boulevard is only steps away, as well as historical monuments, theatres, and galleries. It’s the marriage of old-world and modern, a perfect destination for history buffs and shopaholics alike.
The history of the Old Square reaches into the deep intersection of European trade routes, dating back to when it served as the most important market place.
