I find Salamanca an interesting place to be. It is rich with the Spanish culture with wonderful sights to feed your eyes, your mind and your being.
Salamanca is a city in western Spain, the capital of the province of Salamanca, which belongs to the autonomous community of Castile and Leon (Castilla y León). It lies about 200km west of Madrid and 100km east of the Portuguese border.
Salamanca is known both for its monumental sights and the University of Salamanca, which was founded in 1218 and is the oldest university in Spain and the fifth oldest western university. With its 30,000 students, the university is, together with tourism, the economic engine of the city. Salamanca is also known for the teaching of Spanish language, in this field, Salamanca houses 16% of the offer available in Spain and is known to attract thousands of foreign students.
