The first stage is the central part of the old block, the streets are narrow, the streets of dense and ancient buildings, the construction of the age from about fourteenth Century to complete in nineteenth Century.

The second phase began in the second half of the nineteenth Century, the old neighborhood outside that extended 133.3 meters, draw a circle, the construction of the expansion block.

On the other hand, if driving in the street, there will be a corresponding landscape pleasing to the eye. Drivers to see the streets of the night, is a simple and easy to understand, full of personality logo landscape. Prior to this, the modern urban construction in order to meet the needs of the traffic function, the driver will always be given priority to consider the use of pedestrian street and the separation of people and vehicles Road, or later. At the same time, according to the needs of pedestrians, the configuration of the human body with a high degree of adaptability to the logo, benches, lighting design and street lamps and other street facilities. Whether a city can provide a comfortable and convenient way for pedestrians is one of the standards to measure the level of city planning. However, in urban life, unless very few people have never been in a car, for the average person, the road and the sidewalk in the same importance, must be placed in the same position to consider. Spain's cities can meet the demands of motorists and pedestrians on the street lighting, and unified with the surrounding landscape.
