Plaza Huamanmarca, Cultural heritage square in central Huancayo, Peru.
Plaza Huamanmarca features a central monument, surrounded by administrative buildings and landscaped areas with regional plants and decorative elements.
The square, established in 1572 as Plaza del Comercio, gained prominence when President Ramón Castilla abolished slavery and indigenous tribute in 1855.
Local artisans regularly display traditional Peruvian crafts and regional products around the square, creating a center for cultural exchange.
The square connects to multiple public transportation routes and provides access to nearby markets, restaurants, and administrative offices.
A memorial in the plaza commemorates Peruvian patriots who faced execution by Chilean forces during the Pacific War resistance.
