This avenue is one of the few landscaped areas in the old part of the city. It's very popular with locals and tourists, and was built in the second half of the 19th century on the site of a derelict country house. In the Middle Ages it was an important Jewish quarter known as Haman Zeyte. After the Jews were expelled in 1492, the Marquis of Villena had an enormous palace which occupied part of the present avenue, where El Greco later rented rooms. The Sinagoga del Tránsito, one of the finest examples of Mudejar art, is located in this avenue.
