When being fulfilled four hundred years of the publication of Don Quijote of the Mancha, appreciated for the first time in 1605, are clear that the central personage, with his skinny figure and thoughtul, has become an emblem of the great ideals and, of course, has been the great ambassador of the Spanish language anywhere in the world. By diverse historical circumstances, the city of Guanajuato became the adoptive mother country of Miguel de Cervantes, author of the celebrated centennial work four times.
