Fittingly known as Spain's "Golden City," Salamanca is home to one of the world's oldest universities as well as a wealth of gorgeous historical buildings- all constructed from shimmering golden sandstone.
Salamanca was named the "European Culture Capital" of 2002, which will serve as no surprise to anyone who's seen the city's ornately adorned cathedrals and university buildings. Living in Salamanca is like being transported to another era: the entire city center is composed of golden, historic buildings dating as far back as the 13th century.
The Plaza Mayor, undoubtedly the most impressive in Spain, stands as the heart of the city and the region of Castile, the birthplace of the Spanish language. A plethora of renowned Spanish philosophers, writers and artists have passed through the halls of Salamanca's universities, yet its inhabitants are humble, friendly people who warmly encourage foreigners to join in the fun and learn their language.
Long a center of education, modern-day Salamanca continues to welcome students from around the globe. This constant and diverse student body yields the city's famous nightlife and high concentration of bars and clubs.
If living in a university town, partaking in a wild nightlife and enjoying masterpieces of golden architecture appeals to you, we recommend you study abroad in Salamanca!
Enforex Salamanca, a former convent, blends right into the city's signature golden architecture. However, the school also boasts the most modern amenities, such as air-conditioning and sports facilities.

The facilities feature: 30 classrooms (up to 60 during the summer), staff room, computer lab with free Internet, lecture room, spacious sporting areas, common lounge area, a beautiful central courtyard and much more.
