Valladolid: History, Language, Great people...

by zindara - last update: Aug 11, 2003

The town I was born in...

La Antigua Church (Valladolid)
This is my town. I was born here and I grew up here...
It is a city full of history, monuments, churches, museums...
But also full of bars, a loooot of nightlife..., the best wines in Spain, really good food...
It is a medium size city and as it is not famous it keeps all the good things of a small city with all the services of a big one...

The best spanish is spoken here...

It is said that the best spanish is spoken in Valladolid and it is quite true.
There are lot of great towns to study spanish in Spain: Salamanca, Madrid and many other cities have great schools... but don't skip Valladolid when you search your school!

Long Stay or just for a weekend...

Valladolid is just 200km. at the north of Madrid so if you are not going to stay in Spain for long, you can come just for a weekend.
It is just a couple of hours by car or bus!

Pros:"Lots of monuments, history and great people and nightlife. (Cheaper than Madrid and other big towns)"
In A Nutshell:"COMEEEEE!!!!!"
