The bell tower of Salamanca Cathedral is one of the most emblematic elements of its architecture. It forms part of the New Cathedral, although it is integrated into the complex that includes the Old Cathedral. Baroque style predominates, although the base is Renaissance, reflecting the transition between the two cathedrals. Height: Approximately 92 meters, making it one of the tallest points in the city.

The history of Salamanca's Roman bridge is intertwined with that of the city itself, and it has been one of its defining features for centuries. Located in a position that facilitated human settlement and the development of economic activity, its proximity to the three hills and the Tormes River made it a strategic location. It is a solid bridge, resistant to the passage of time. For centuries it served as the main access point to the city, until a new bridge was completed over the Tormes River in 1913, allowing the passage of vehicles.

The Cuesta de los Caenes section is part of a very accessible circular route near Cabrerizos, on the outskirts of Salamanca. No shade, ideal for cool days. Suitable for families and children. Beautiful views of Cabrerizos, Salamanca in the distance, and the Tormes Valley. The route passes by the Arroyo de Las Caenes stream, and the Cuesta de los Caenes is one of its most recognizable sections.
