Salamanca is best known for its university, the oldest in
Spain, and once, long ago, among the four best in Europe. |

On the left you see the Salamanca Cathedral across an old
Roman bridge that still carries some pretty heavy traffic. On the
right is an open area in the center of town where some Peru and
Equador indians were performing for the passers by. I was hoping
that they weren't singing for their supper because they would be
sure to go hungry. |

The old stonework of Salamanca seems to be more intracately
carved than in your average Castalan city giving it a richer
feel. I managed to arrive in Salamanca during a festival so
traffic was heavy and rooms were dear. I decided to move on after
one night. |
