Spend the morning in
Salamanca visiting the city centre and looking at the monuments you missed yesterday. The
Plaza Mayor, of
Churrigueresque style, is the social centre of the city and contains the spectacular City Hall facade. Another must is going to the
Casa de las Conchas (House of Shells), with its facade full of carved shells. Add these to the
Clerecía and the
Pontifical University and you will discover that the entire old town is a piece of art.
TRIP Salamanca - Madrid (Estacion Sur)
Walking around the area known as
Madrid de los Austrias including the
Plaza Mayor,
San Miguel Market and
Arenal Street is a superb way to spend an evening. Walk through the small streets of
Madrid's city centre and delight in its charm. For the sunset go to
Plaza de Oriente, where the
Royal Palace and the
Almudena Cathedral are located. The sun's rays give all this area a distinctive orange colour. Finish the day having some tapas and beers in the trendy
La Latina quarter, where certain clubs are often open until dawn.
