Where is Salamanca?
It lies towards the western border of Spain with Portugal,
250K away from Madrid (two and a half hours by car) and
100K south of Valladolid (regional capital and one hour
away by car), within easy reach of famous historical cities
like Avila, Segovia, Toledo and Ciudad Rodrigo.
What kind of city is it?
Best answer is: a small, beautiful and historic university
city, bustling with students, boasting two cathedrals (12th
and 16th centuries) and two universities whose academic
roots go back to the twelfth century and many of whose historic
(and still used) buildings go back to Renaissance times.
The city sits astride the River Tormes and her “heart”
is the monumental Plaza Mayor (main square), reckoned by
many as the finest in all Spain.
