The city of Salamanca is the Spanish student city of excellence, a very lively place with a great offer of activities for those students who are undertaking a course in a Spanish academy in Salamanca. We leave you 7 pieces of advice so you never get bored in this World Heritage city:

• ■ To enjoy the night with your classmates from the Spanish academy in Salamanca. Do not stop experiencing the great student atmosphere of Salamanca nights.
• ■ Go for a walk in the historic part of the city to discover part of its history through all its monuments, its historic buildings and its culture. The Plaza Mayor, the casa de las conchas, the cathedral Vieja, the cathedral Nueva and the convent of San Esteban are some of the places you should visit.
• ■ Contemplate the wonderful sights of the city and its historic part from the Puente Romano Roman bridge that spans the Tormes river with your classmates from the Spanish academy in Salamanca. We recommend you to go to the bridge by night and have a panorama of the illuminated city.
• ■ To go out in the city to have tapas is customary for everyone who visits the city. The Plaza Mayor and the Van Dick street are the best areas to taste the typical Salamanca pinchos.
• ■ Lastly, if you want to be lucky during your stay in Salamanca, all students from the Spanish academy, go to the SalamancaUniversityand look for the frog that appears on the building’s façade. A tale says that whoever sees it will have good luck, so look carefully.
