It is surrounded by restaurants, cafeterias, bookstores and nightlife spots; there is a large playground for kids, and some 50 friendly stray cats call this place home. The amphitheater features live shows almost every day so you may want to go and check what's going on.

Eat

Cafe Haiti, one of the most traditional spots in the district, yet the most artists-friendly and tourist-friendly restaurant and cafeteria; and to top it all, one of the best quality cafes in the area.
