Melilla's Bullring was built in 1947 and due to its structure and situation is known as "bullfighting mosque".
There are more Bullrings in africa (I believe that there is one in Maputo, Moçambique, and one in the Equatorial Guinea), but this is the only one that works.

Formed as a perfect circle with a park in the centre, Plaza de España is the real centre of Melilla. It lies next to the harbour, and out west the streets of the older part of Melilla lies.
Here you have some interesting buildings, as "Palacio de la Asamblea de Melilla" (Melilla's City Hall) or "Casino Militar". The houses are in excellent condition.

As you walk up the stairs, there is a sign with a map and explanation. If you have a digital camera, you can take a picture of the sign to act as your guidebook.
This is the first plaza from the entrace. It is called Alijibe Plaza.
