Spain)
or Salamanca accommodation? Located by the Tormes River on the hills of western Spain, Salamanca City is known as a popular place for people who want to learn to speak Spanish as its inhabitants speak the purest form of Spanish known as Castilian.
Salamanca impresses tourists with its magnificent architecture. It is also known as the Golden City due to the Renaissance use of the golden yellow Villamayor Stone on its buildings. A must-see site in the city is the Plaza Mayor, an 18th century central square that is considered as one of the grandest squares in the whole of Europe. Two cathedrals also dominate the city, the 12th century Romanesque Old Cathedral of Salamanca and the 16th century New Cathedral of Salamanca, both equally magnificent and awe-inspiring in splendor.
The city also has a student-friendly atmosphere, being the home of the University of Salamanca. Founded in 1218, the school is the third oldest university in Europe today. A tradition for visitors in the university grounds is to look for the small carved “frog” on its intricately detailed facade because it is believed that whoever finds it receives good luck.
Other attractions in Salamanca are the 16th century Monterrey Palace, 16th century San Esteban Dominican Monastery, St. Stephen's Convent, La Casa de las Conchas or the House of Shells and Casa Lis or the Museum of Art Nouveau and Art Deco.
