Surrounded by volcanoes and rugged green hills, Antigua is one of the oldest and most beautiful cities in Central America. It is also one of the region's most popular tourist destinations, and it is not difficult to see why. Its historical value is accentuated by informative museums and crumbling colonial ruins, and its lure to the modern traveler is in part due to its cobblestone streets, charming buildings, and stunning central plaza. Restaurants, cafes, and hotels catering to tourists are everywhere, giving the city a cosmopolitan feel. In addition, the scope and diversity of the indigenous population further contributes to the uniqueness of Antigua. Located in the center of this charming town, the school's beautiful colonial home offers a pleasant atmosphere in which to study yet an easy, short walk to the heart of Guatemalan life and activities.
