The city of Salamanca, in the province of Castile and León, is one of the most spectacular cities in Spain. The sandstone buildings have an exquisite golden glow that has given Salamanca the nickname La Ciudad Dorada, the golden city. The University of Salamanca was founded in 1218 by Alfonso IX and since then it has remained one of the most significant and prestigious academic centers in Europe. People come from all parts of Spain and Europe to study at the University and the students represent a significant percentage of the city's population of approximately 36,000 people. Salamanca has a highly active night life.
