From the Catedral, follow Calle de los Reyes de Católicos two blocks to reach the heart of the city center. The Plaza del Mercado Chico occupies the former space of a Roman forum, with the 19th-century Ayuntamiento (town hall) facing across the expanse to the Iglesia de San Juan Bautista. The font where St. Teresa was baptized is on display inside. The story of St. Teresa continues at the Convento de Santa Teresa.
