Plaza de Las Tres Cabezas
If you keep walking past the flagpole, you’ll hit La Plaza de las Tres Cabezas, a can’t-miss monument with huge golden heads featuring three significant men from Mexico’s history (Venustiano Carranza, Miguel Hidalgo, and Benito Juárez). Flanked on either side of this monument are similar, smaller monuments dedicated to other historic events that have helped shape both Baja and Mexico as a whole.

If you walk just two blocks inward from this plaza, you’ll hit Calle Primera, or First Street. This is the most touristy street in Ensenada, but it’s a must-stop due to the vast offerings of shops, restaurants, and bars all in one place. Here, we grabbed some stuffed churros from a little hole-in-the-wall stand and made our way to dinner, complete with street-performing musicians and bustling crowds.
