An important square featuring the Monument to the Heroes of Iquique, commemorating the 1879 naval battle in the Pacific War.

The Plaza Sotomayor is one of the most important squares in the city. You can see the Monument to the Heroes of Iquique, in commemoration of the naval battle of May 21, 1879 in the Pacific War. It is also an important archaeological site: the first wooden wharf of Valparaíso dating from 1825 was discovered there, as well as the remains of the Hotel Inglés, the first Stock Exchange and the first Spanish frigate Esmeralda, captured by Cochrane in 1820. However, the in situ museum that opened in 2001 is now closed to the public.

Aménagée à l'extrémité du centre ville, cette place entourée d' édifice administratifs avec d'un coté un monument commémoratif et deux tours qui marquent l'entrée du port et de l'autre l'immeuble du commandement de la marine est animée par une circulation automobile importante. Elle permet aussi l'aménagement de gradins avec scène qui permet l'organisation de spectacle. A voir après l'utilisation de l'ascenseur El Péral.
