Favorite thing: As one walks from the port past the security checkpoint and the palm tree lined street, one approaches the town circle, Plaza Espana. Here is the twin towered Palacio de la Assemblia (City Hall) designed by Ernesto Nieto. This is not to be confused with the taller, modern twin spired maritime building. Also on Plaza Espana is the #2 bus (Pl. Espana-Aforos) which goes to the border checkpoint near Beni Enzar, Morocco, the public library, the Parque Hernandez, and the main commercial street.
