"Guanajuato is the ideal spot in Mexico to study Spanish, being a small and quiet university city (comparable to Granada and Salamanca in Spain) and far from the tourist cities (such as Cancún or Cuernavaca). Declared a World Heritage Site by the UNESCO, you will be charmed by its wealth in architecture and culture. The international airport, less than half an hour away, provides the city with excellent connections with all the other cities in Mexico and with the rest of the world. As regards your personal safety, please do not worry. Guanajuato is 99,9% safe!"
