Besides the Salamanca known for its monuments, museums and history, we can find another more alternative version with a tour through non-tourist activities. Now, putting an end to daytime visits, we will focus on the Salamancan night and the best places to go out in the city.
With 25, students enrolled in the University of Salamanca, the night life is as active, or even more, as the daytime, and it spreads out for several areas close to Plaza Mayor, which are perfectly accessible on foot. In a city like Salamanca even its pubs reflect its history with a decoration thoroughly studied. Besides the music, drinks and good environment, the Salamancan nightlife should be included in the guides just as an excuse for tourists to see some of the bars from the inside.
In this street and its proximities, bars with over 20 years of activity and that, generation after generation, have filled the Salamancan nights with good moments are still up for partying. Yes, you are reading this right: Salamanca has a night port where many decide to stop for a drink. In this bar it is not difficult to imagine being in one of those alleys with businesses and two-storey wooden houses so characteristic of ports.
Contrary to what its name implies, its exposed-bricked interior and its antique style transports us to past times. A pub where you can spend a good time with friends and enjoy live music.
Since the early 80s, this bar still preserves parts of a real submarine among its nautical-style decoration. Calle Bordadores is one of the favourites among foreign students, and Camelot the most famous club in Salamanca. A metallic sign with the name of the club anticipates what we will find after the entrance arch. We were not wrong: stone, iron and shields constitute the purest medieval style of the place.
