What our students said about Salamanca

For me, Salamanca is fascinating because of the architecture and art, the living and present history everywhere, the tradition and the university (academic) atmosphere. Plus a lot of different events. So on a day-to-day basis, I think it's a place where you can live an easy, relaxed and enjoyable life.

Jolanta Poland

Salamanca was awesome! It was big enough that there was lots to do, but small enough that it was easy to navigate and also very safe. The climate was also wonderful – dry but very summery!

I had only seen pictures of the city, so I didn't actually get to know much of it until I got there. It is an interesting city with a lot of history and proud people.

Salamanca has a very interesting old university and public library to wonder through with amazement, as do most cities in Europe. Salamanca is not near a beach.

It's a beautiful small city. The only areas I haven't commented on are ones where I've not been sufficiently engaged in to form an opinion.

The historic core of the city is an inhabited open-air museum. The many students make it a very young city with a lot of charm.

Q&A - Questions and answers about Salamanca
