Antigua is a really nice town with a great colonial feel. It is quite touristed and on weekends streams of cars with Guatemala City Residents flood the cobblestone streets. |

Antigua is loaded with Spanish Language Schools. We studied here for a week and though the schools here are very good we felt that our school in Xela was a better deal. |
Our Spanish School - La Union |

Everywhere you turn in Antigua you see ruins of beautiful old cathedrals. You could easily explore these for a couple of days, as well as visiting those that have been restored. |
