| Study Spanish in Guanajuato, Mexico |
|
Open the door to Guanajuato and you open the door to history, culture, the
Spanish language, all in one of Mexico's most preserved colonial cities.
The charm and beauty of Guanajuato's colonial architecture, quaint plazas
and stone streets, combined with the culture and youthfulness of the city's
state university, unite past and present to make Guanajuato an outstanding
destination for studying the Spanish language, Mexican history and culture. Subterranean tunnels, a labyrinth of overground alleys called callejones and a mosaic of colorfully painted houses jetting up the sides of the mountains which encircle the city, add to Guanajuato's unique atmosphere. This impossible topography was settled in 1559 when Guanajuato's silver and gold mines were among the richest in the world. The colonial structures built from this wealth still remain intact throughout much of the city, giving the town a distinctive European air. Picture yourself learning Spanish in this ideal setting and El Quijote will take you there. El Quijote's programs stress language acquisition through total immersion for students at any level of proficiency. Students, given the opportunity to take most of their classes with Mexican students and live with a host family, assimilate the language by living and experiencing the culture.
