Salamanca - The golden city

Salamanca, also known as "the golden city" is one of the most popular student cities in Europe, and has a pulsating student-environment. As one of the two culture-cities of Europe in 2002, Salamanca is on the map for everyone who is interested in either learning more about Spanish culture, or who is a student. -Or both!
Situated right west of Madrid, inbetween Madrid and Portugal, Salamanca also offers great opportunities for travelling and seeing more of Spain, or for taking a trip to Lisboa and the beautiful northern beaches of Portugal. Salamanca, with its population of about 180.000 is without a doubt a cosmopolitan city, but it also has an abundance of real Spanish tradition.

In addition to the European Culture Capital 2002 title, Salamanca also has been declared "World Heritage City" by UNESCO. Furtheron, Salamanca boasts the third oldest university in Europe and because of its quality and variety of studies, it is recognised as one of the most prestigious in the world. The traditional food and drinks have to be tried, and the nightlife, whether you´re just looking for a pub to buy a beer or you´re in the mood for some "clubbing", is there for you to enjoy in abundance.
