Salamanca Cathedral comprises two adjoining structures: the New Cathedral and the Old Cathedral. The Old Cathedral, dating back to the 12th century, features Romanesque architecture with a stunning Gothic apse, including detailed frescoes—don't miss the Last Judgment mural. The New Cathedral, completed in the 18th century, showcases a mix of late Gothic and Baroque styles; look closely at the ornate façade for the astronaut figure added during restoration. Ascend the bell towers for panoramic views of Salamanca's old town and the Tormes River. The mix of architectural styles provides varied photo opportunities, capturing the evolution of centuries in one frame. Best light: early morning or late afternoon for dramatic shadows and soft lighting.
