Salamanca University - Spot the Frog
As you enter the entrance to Salamanca University (Universidad Civil) you'll
see the enormous facade dominated by the Catholic
Monarchs in the centre and all kinds of floral designs and heraldry around them.
But can you spot the frog?
It is said that if you can spot the frog without any help you'll enjoy good
luck and will marry within a year (many visitors look well away when they hear
this final detail!).
I doubt if it applies to frog spotting here on your PC screen. But who knows?
Let us know!

| There he is sitting on top of a scull in this close up. If you're
looking for more nonesense in Salamanca go to the New Cathedral and find
Puerta de Ramos (the Frog Gate). Recent work by stonemasons include an
ice cream cone and an astronaut which we assume weren't there when the
"New" Cathedral was built in the 16th Century! |
