The City: Salamanca

Why Salamanca?

Because...It is known as the city of Spanish.

It is one of Europe’s most beautiful cities.

It is situated in the area of Spain where the Spanish language originated: Castile.

The city is home to one of Europe’s oldest universities, especially focused on arts and languages.

The inhabitants of Salamanca speak the purest Spanish - Castilian.

Salamanca is not only beautiful, but very safe and very well maintained.

Because Salamanca is a majestic city that you will never forget.

A City of MonumentsLa Ciudad Dorada – The Golden City – as this historical, cheerful and welcoming city is known, is

located 212 kilometers from the capital, Madrid. Salamanca’s humanist tradition and its wealth of

historical heritage led to it being declared World Heritage Centre by UNESCO in 1998 and

European Capital of Culture in 2002 thanks to its wealth of monuments.

One of Salamanca’s greatest treasures is the Plaza Mayor, renowned as one of the world’s most

beautiful squares. As such, in 2005 it was declared “Main Square of Europe”. The two cathedrals

found there and the façade of the university are some of the other endless monuments to be

highlighted in this open, cultural city that takes in thousands of university students from all over the

world every year.

In short...Salamanca, a small city of 165,000 inhabitants, is home of some of the most impressive architecture

in Spain, and yet it remains a lively and dynamic community. The city is characterized by its unique

yellow stone façades which fill the streets with color and light. The diverse architectural styles of its

cloisters, churches and Renaissance palaces blend together in the streets and plazas of the old

town. The striking

engravings which characterize the Romanesque and Gothic cathedrals, the House of Shells, and

the façade of the university all reflect Salamanca’s historical importance, proving it worthy of its

prestigious title given by UNESCO as a “Mankind Heritage Monument”.

S4F-SPANISH FOR FOREIGNERS- a company specialized in the organization of language study and cultural trips

in Spain.

What does our task involve?

Our work consists of helping parents, teachers of Spanish as a foreign language, companies and students to

come to Spain to learn Spanish.

What should the person who wants to come to Spain to study Spanish do?

They just have to tell us when they want to start the Spanish course, the duration of the course, the kind of

course they want to take but if they don’t know which one to take we will suggest the most suitable course for

them. Also they have to tell us if they want to stay with a host family, in a student residence, in a share

apartment or any other kind of accommodation they want and we take care of the rest.

Where will the students that decide to travel with S4F study?

S4F works with the best Spanish language schools and only with those which are accredited by the Instituto

Cervantes and which issue official certificates. We also work with the Universidad de Salamanca.

We will choose the best Spanish language school for the students according to their interests and budget.

Also, if the students so wish we can offer them the possibility of validating credits with their university and take

an internship program in order to enrich and enhanced their CV.
