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 - Segovia
As soon as you arrive in
Segovia you will spot the jewel of the city: a massive
Roman Aqueduct that stands up with double arches in its more remarkable section in the
Azoguejo Square. It's the best example of
Roman civil architecture in Spain. Your first stop should be the
Jewish Quarter, exploring its narrow streets and old houses and monuments. After that, visit the other big attraction of the city: The
Alcázar. This fortress, full of spires, looks like something from a fairy tale. It is a beautiful structure to visit and from the top of the
Juan II Tower, you have exceptional views over the city. You can complete the day going for some tapas and drinks on
Infanta Isabel Street, where most of the bars are. If you're there over the weekend, then don't miss the funny Segovian night.
