Salamanca, Spain- My new home :)
The famous "Plaza Mayor" (Main Square)-- so beautiful at night!
"La Clerecía" (Church) and "La Casa de las Conchas" (House of Seashells)
El Puente Romano (The Roman Bridge): The first 15 arches closest to the city were built by the Romans in the year 89 (that's right-- of the 1st century) in order to cross "el Río Tormes" (the Tormes River.) The rest of the arches were built in the 16th century.
"La Catedral Vieja" (The Old Cathedral)
Construction from the 12th-14th Century
A view of "la Catedral Nueva" from "el Huerto (Garden) de Calisto y Melibea" Construction from the 16th-18th Century
Brendan and I climbed up to the top of the cathedrals
(both the old and the new are connected.)
