The Plaza de Cibeles is the busiest district in Madrid because it houses one of the largest and tallest post offices in the world â the Communications Palace. This is the building that carries with it about 3 thousand workers everyday.

Similarly, the Plaza de Armas was the scene of the death of TÃºpac Amaru II, considered the indigenous leader of the resistance.
