terraza
Rooftop gathering space
Terraza is the Spanish word for terrace—an outdoor patio, rooftop space, or raised platform adjacent to a building.
In English contexts, terraza typically appears in descriptions of Spanish-speaking regions or Spanish-style architecture: We had drinks on the terraza overlooking the plaza.
The word carries connotations of leisure and warm-weather living.
