About town
Over the last few years much of Inca’s town centre has been pedestrianised and  you can take a pleasant stroll around the local placas (squares) and palm-lined streets. The Placa Santa Maria Major is Inca’s main square, where there are some lovely cafes and bars, and the town’s main church, which is worth a visit.
