Salamanca, Spain

Salamanca es una ciudad en España. La ciudad es muy bonita y limpia. Mis amigos y yo comemos tapas a los restaurantes de tapas por la noche. Tambien nosotros caminamos en las calles y miramos a los edificios. Salamanca es una ciudad para los estudiantes de la universidad. La ciudad es muy divertida y son muchas cosas hermosas.

 The city of Salamanca, Spain is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been to. The streets are of cobblestone, the buildings, restaurants, houses, apartments, and hotels all have the look of magic. The city is modern yet, historical. Salamanca is like a city straight out of a fairy tale. There are many wonderful attributes that can hardly be described by words. The above picture is of the plaza mayor. This is where everyone in the city gathers. There are an abundance of restaurants, shops, and markets that are all unique and captivating in their own way. At night, the plaza mayor is luminated and becomes magnificent in every way.

While in Salamanca, my friends and I met many people in the Plaza Mayor. While there, we would meander in and out of the many clubs and bars and then would meet back up in the Plaza before heading back to our hotel. We even ran into students from High Point, NC. It was so much fun to practice the Spanish language with the people. (After our trip, all of us came home much more comfortable with conversing in the language.)

Salamanca is known for being a "college town". The above picture is one of gorgeous catholic universities. The city is very youthful and is overflowing in culture. The city is also fairly compact and everyone there travels by foot.  I learned an immeasurable amount while visiting there from the different people and places of the city.
