Salamanca, here we come!

Leaving Madrid, I noticed that the city is actually in a valley surrounded by big mountains. Not only was the view pretty, but it made me feel more at home :)
Welcome to Salamanca. I really love all of the parks and gardens that serve as retreats from the stone and big buildings of the city. They also usually have fountains and monuments that serve to cool you off while reminding you of the history/culture of the area. This is certainly a trend I wish we'd incorporate more into the US culture.
We saw one beautiful building after another.
Don't you just want to get lost in these streets?
