Sonoma Plaza is the vibrant heart of Sonoma, a tree-lined square modeled after a traditional Mexican town plaza. Visitors can stroll past historic adobe structures, pop into wine-tasting rooms, browse boutique shops, and dine at outdoor cafes. The plaza also hosts a weekly farmers market and seasonal events, making it a lively gathering place that reflects the town's rich heritage and modern wine-country charm.
