Fantasy and know for mere pleasure - Fantastic experience, we saw the very funny theatrical route, Yolanda is a scholar in her subject and knew how to tell us countless curiosities in addition to all the deep history of this magnificent city. The spectacular actress has immersed us tenaciously in the different historical frameworks, embodying super emblematic characters.
I know almost everything about Salamanca, although I will still have to repeat to take notes.
Thank you Salamanca Spectacular for this SPECTACULAR experience!

Excursion Recommended! - Salamanca is a medieval city. Full of history. Mainly highlighting its famous University and its Frogs, as well as the famous Cathedral. The Plaza Mayor is quite extensive and has two branches towards a bohemian wing, and another, more traditional.
It is interesting to note, the restorations made in various historical monuments, among which stands out, at the door of the University, in the sets of the ogival arch of the entrance, an astronaut....
They are preserved, very beautiful Roman Aqueducts.
It is a city, with a lot of tradition and history. Mainly linked to culture and letters.
Interesting to visit.
