The plaza located on Sabino Berthelot Street, in the Zárate neighborhood of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, is a small, landscaped, pedestrian-friendly space that connects directly with the neighborhood's daily life. This space not only facilitates access but also acts as a meeting point, alongside a neighborhood hall, reflecting community cohesion. Recent city council work—including paving improvements, cleaning, and refurbishing of railings and access points—has reinforced its usefulness and highlighted its role as an essential public space for residents.

This urban corner takes on special importance during the patron saint festival of Santa Clara, when it comes alive with cultural and social events. At the opening of the festivities, public announcements are held, batucada and murga bands perform, and open-air dances and pilgrimages are organized, many of which take place around or start from this plaza. Furthermore, its proximity to the civic center allows for workshops, folk music, and children's activities to be held in the surrounding area, reinforcing the neighborhood's inclusive nature. In this way, Sabino Berthelot Plaza functions both as a transit space and as a cultural and social epicenter, a reflection of Zárate's active and participatory identity.
