Lonely Planet review for Palenque de Gallos & Plaza de Toros

A block northwest of the plaza lies a monument to the town’s heyday – the Palenque de Gallos, a cockfighting ring, built like a Roman amphitheater. It was restored in the 1970s and sometimes hosts theater or dance performances. Follow Zaragoza-Libertad north to the edge of the town where there are remains of the former bullring Plaza de Toros; the Capilla de Guadalupe and panteón (cemetery) across the street are free and worth a look.
