Car & Motorcycle
Vehicle access to the Plaza Nueva area is restricted by red lights and little black
posts known as pilonas, which block certain streets during certain times of the day.
If you are going to stay at a hotel near Plaza Nueva, press the button next to your
hotel's name beside the pilonas to contact reception, which will be able to lower the
pilonas for you.
