The new and old cathedral are located right next to each other. A magnificent monumental building.
The university is closely linked to the city's history. The Feria del Libro is taking place on the Plaza Mayor. There is music, but otherwise only book stalls - no food stalls. If I weren't hungry, I'd think it was great!

Just a moment of rest.
Good food, wine, sleep, and continue tomorrow.

I've had this small, old, historic town on my to-do list for a long time.

After I chose a parking garage in the middle of the center,... we arrived there at around 3:30 p.m.

We spent 2.5 hours taking in the very clean and wonderful city.

We wandered through small alleys and admired the old buildings and their art.

Our excursion today went to Spain🇪🇸, to Salamanca. First, we had a guided tour through the city, then a typical lunch. Afterwards, free time, during which we climbed into the cathedral⛪ and up the tower. It was really worth it.
