Covering 3,700 square meters, the wave-patterned mosaic tile pavement was created by Portuguese experts in a traditional style found in many parts of Southern Europe. From the main road to the Church of St. Dominic, the pavement extends to the Ruins of St. Paul's, making the heart of the city a pedestrian paradise. All but essential vehicles are banned from the square, which features a fountain shaped like an artillery sphere as well as monumental plants and benches. http://www.famouslandmarks.net (Added: Wed Dec 00 0 Hits: 0 Rating: 0.00 Votes: 0)   Rate It   Review It  View Details Library of Congress - Washington DC Welcome to the Library of Congress.
