Spanish Language Immersion in Quetzaltenango Xela
Quetzaltenango is the second largest city and was founded by Pedro de Alvarado on the site known to the Quiches as XELAJUJ, from which the famous song "Luna de Xelajú" derives its name.
The city has preserved its colonial style layout. Part of it is built on a hill, so that transiting through its streets implies going up- and downhill and the overall effect is charming. There are particularly outstanding examples of buildings constructed in the neoclassical style. Among these is the City Hall, complete with Corinthian capitals on its columns. The Municipal Theater is decorated with busts of local artists and scholars.
Our Spanish language immersion allows you plenty of time to discover the culture & city of Quetzaltenango Xela.
