Advantages: university, nightlife, history, culture... Disadvantages: not many people speak english
...it was published the first Spanish Grammar in 1492, and indeed many foreigners come here to learn Spanish as Salmantinos (people born in Salamanca) speak very correct Spanish (I think I am also learning Spanish here lol).
The university is divided into different Campuses located around the city. Campus "Miguel de Unamuno" holds Law, Business, Medicine, Pharmacy... and students can get there by foot (15-20 mins. from the centre) or by bus (lines 4 and 13.).
Students of Humanities and Science (except Psychology and Education) attend lessons in the centre part of the town, close to the Main Square (from now on Plaza Mayor). Psychology is situated far from the centre but it takes 20 mins max. by foot, and the same for students of Education which is situated close to river Tormes.
The University oldest buildings such as Philology are worth visiting...

...Hello people:
After my first experiences writing for you in Ciao, and reading some diamond reviews, I've decided to start a serie of reviews about the city I'm living right now... Barcelona....
The serie is called Barceloning... from the verbe "To Barcelona" that means, enjoying one of world's amazing cities.

MQ: The Palau is placed at "Carrer (Street in Catalá) de Sant Francesc de Paula, 2" Near to the Via Laietana. in the Barri Gotic.

Advantages: Nice garden, good for family Disadvantages: No
...Schloss Charlottenburg is the last surviving palace of the city and it's a good example of Baroque architecture. It was built as a summer retreat for Sophie Charlotte, the first queen of Prussia. Inside the palace, the collection of antiques and painting really shows you the passion Sophie has for art and music. There is an impressive mosaic garden inside where you can take a walk. My personal impression of the garden is that it is a replica of the Palacede Versailles-well it is believed that Sophie was a big fan of the design used in the French court.
On the garden grounds are two buildings: the mosoleum and the Belvedere.The mosoleum houses the tombs of a few former Prussian royals. As for the Belvedere, it used to be a teahouse but it is now the home of a collection of 18-19 century porcelain....
