The golden city of Salamanca — Spain’s grandest plaza, an ancient university, and a frog

April 15, 2023

Join me for all the sights and sounds on a visit to the university city of Salamanca during Spain’s ‘Semana Santa’. I take in what is possibly Spain’s most impressive Plaza Mayor, explore the city’s ancient university — including a frog hunt — dodge religious processions, and gaze in wonder at one of the city’s cathedrals — yes, it has two! Plus, a splash of history, architecture, and observations for good measure!
