Do you want to fall in love forever? Come on our Illuminated Night Salamanca Tour and you will be perplexed by the colossal beauty of this city of the Meseta. If it is beautiful during the day, imagine when the moon and stars appear and everything is silent just so you can enjoy its most romantic side. Now do you understand why it receives so many students and tourists?
Live the pure picaresque in the first person. In a single night we will get into the shoes of motley and courageous gentlemen who intend to win over offended beautiful ladies. We will feel like students capable of selling their souls to the devil and why not? "Celestinas" pimps by profession that with a thousand omens and potions that manage to deceive young lovers.
During our tour, the most sympathetic and important historical figures in the history of the city will appear. Get ready to learn about the tragedies of Calixto and Melibea from the mouth of Celestina herself. We will also rejoice with the guides, hustlers and smart crooks, fear of cautious parents who amply warned their offspring that the students were quick-witted and crooked young people.
We will experience the fierce hatred between enemy families that fought and killed in dark corners, filling the city with blood, the blood of innocents that stained the face of Doña María la Brava with sadness and horror, symbol of the courage and pain of a mother.
Another of the essential destinations is the famous Calle de la Compañía, which is an ideal pedestrian street to be able to enjoy the beautiful illuminated monuments without having to watch out for traffic. This street is full of monuments and gets its name from the Society of Jesus, the Jesuit order.
There you can see the façade of the Clerecía, which was an old Jesuit college and is currently the headquarters of the Pontifical University of Salamanca. You will also be able to admire the façade of the popular Casa de las Conchas and discover the reason for such unique decoration.
We will delight ourselves with the illuminated facades of historical monuments, the oldest in all of Spain. There you will be able to learn a little about the Plateresque style that adorns its façade, another typically Spanish style. We will finish in the Plaza de Anaya, to contemplate the majestic New Cathedral of Salamanca, which could not be missing on the Illuminated Night Salamanca Tour.
