Spanish Language Courses in SALAMANCA

Salamanca is called "La Dorada," the Golden City, because its buildings are made of a golden sandstone. If you approach Salamanca from Madrid, you at once see its rich historical legacy, and you will find it a most beautiful city. Alfonso IX of Castille and Leon is responsible for the city's worldwide fame: he founded the first university in Spain in Salamanca. Salamanca possesses the advantages of a big city and yet is small enough to offer the intimacy of a village. Its main square, Plaza Mayor, is the perfect meeting point. Spaniards and foreigners gather there to go to pubs or just to enjoy the sights from one of its many cafes.
