Staying with Mexican Families
by pauly_queretaro
As a former exchange student in Queretaro I would like to advise young men of the following: Even though you may be used to bringing home a girl from the bar in the US DOES NOT MEAN IT IS OK IN MEXICO!!
I know first hand that this is true because I was kicked out of my first Host Family's home for doing just this. Many young men are used to meeting women at a bar and , well, taking them home to get to know them a little better :)
Well, this is just not done in Mexico, especially if you are living with a family as an exchange student or something similar. However if you are living on your own, more power to ya!
Santa Clara Church
by JessieLang
The giant Santa Clara church, just a block from Jardín Guerrero, has a miniature plaza in front of it—a paved area with a few more trees trimmed into square shapes, some benches, and an elaborate marble fountain. The interior of the church is supposed to be incredible (no square inch left undecorated) but the doors were locked unless a service was starting, and I didn’t get in. It was built in 1633.
The City - Queretaro
by skyhopper
Queretaro is a vibrant city. With a wealth of splenid colonial architecture, the city comes alive with authentic cultural entertainment in virtually every plaza. It is extremely safe and clean and filled with welcoming Mexican hosts. Worth a stop in any Mexico itinerary.
