The Roman bridge and statue of the bear guarding it, date back nearly 2000 years, and the Universidad Salamanca was started in the 1200s. Part of the inner city is still walled. The Plaza Mayor here is considered one of the most beautiful in all of Spain. It was the European Cultural Capital a few years ago.
My friend Ana even has a book published at Universidad Salamanca on the famous Spanish writer Unamuno that is for sale in the university bookstore. Go Ana! I want one :)
The fresh seafood comes by high speed train, and was awesome!
People gather in the Plaza Mayor in Salamanca to socialize and enjoy music and food in the warm night air.]
Tunas are Salamanca University students that sing and play music in the Plaza Mayor in the evenings. It was great fun to listen to their music while eating tapas and having a cold Mahou cerveza.
Your photos are amazing as always. The trip looks beautiful and delicious.
ReplyDeleteMuy bien! Yes the food is fun too. The tapas are great finger food. Bocodillos are really fun little sandwiches that are simple and very yummy.
