The Plaza de la Constitución (Constitution Square) is located in the heart of the old town and has been one of the most important points in the city of San Sebastián for centuries. It was once the site of the Town Hall (the building is now the central municipal library) and was an important meeting place for locals for many festive occasions. Today, however, the square is still the centre of many events and celebrations. Every year, the municipal flag is raised from the balcony of the former Town Hall to officially open the San Sebastián Festival Week. In addition, many of the city's important cultural shows and activities are organised here. Visitors are always amazed to see that all the balconies facing the square are numbered. This is because in the past, this square was also used as a bullring and visitors found their seats using the numbers.

What a beautiful clean sandy beach, it was a dream to walk along. The beach of La Concha is in front of the center of the city of San Sebastián and is part of the Concha Bay. Both the beach and the bay owe their name to the similarity of their shape, that of a shell, very clearly visible from the air.

Behind the town hall there is a meaningful memorial to 400 victims of the Franco dictatorship. A steel sculpture in the shape of the shore of Donostia with holes in which passers-by can put flowers.

The building was started in 1882 for use as a casino, with its inauguration on July 1, 1887 in the Alderdi-Eder gardens of San Sebastian. Queen Maria Cristina of Habsburg attended its inauguration for the first time. It is next to the Royal Nautical Club. It closed as a casino due to the prohibition of gambling in 1924. On April 14, 1928, an agreement was reached to open the Attraction and Tourism Centre in this building. Later, this entity was installed in a building next to the Hotel Maria Cristina. On January 20, 1945, the City Council moved to this building, modifying the initial project in 1943 and transforming the old casino into the City Hall. Until then, the Town Hall was located in the Plaza de la Constitución (Old Town), in the current headquarters of the Municipal Library.

Although Zubieta is, apparently, a town, it is actually a neighborhood of San Sebastián and Usurbil. With about 400 inhabitants, it is located just 10 kilometers from the capital of Gipuzkoa and is crossed by the Oria River.
