1. In the settings.py add:

   from django.utils.translation import ugettext_lazy as _
   from django.conf.global_settings import TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS as TCP
   
   
   MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (
       ...
       'django.middleware.locale.LocaleMiddleware',
   )
   
   TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS = TCP + (
       "django.core.context_processors.i18n",
       "django.core.context_processors.request",
   )
   
   LANGUAGE_CODE = 'es'
   
   # Lenguage support
   LANGUAGES = (
       ('en', _('English')),
       ('es', _('Spanish')),
   )
   
   # Path of the folder locale
   LOCALE_PATHS = (
       os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'locale'),
   )
   
   TIME_ZONE = 'America/Buenos_Aires'
   USE_I18N = True
   USE_L10N = True
   USE_TZ = True
   

2. In the urls.py add this url:

   url(r'^i18n/', include('django.conf.urls.i18n')),
   

3. Add this snippet:

   {% load i18n %}
   
   <div id="lenguage_sel" class="pull-right">
                           <form action="{% url 'set_language' %}" method="post" class="form-search">
                                   {% csrf_token %}
                                   <input name="next" type="hidden" value="{{ redirect_to }}" />
                                   <div class="input-group">
                                           <select class="form-control input-sm" name="language">
                                           {% get_current_language as LANGUAGE_CODE %}
                                           {% get_available_languages as LANGUAGES %}
                                           {% get_language_info_list for LANGUAGES as languages %}
                                           {% for language in languages %}
                                           <option value="{{ language.code }}"{% if language.code == LANGUAGE_CODE %} selected="selected"{% endif %}>
                                               {{ language.name_local }} ({{ language.code }})
                                           </option>
                                           {% endfor %}
                                           </select>
                                           <span class="input-group-btn">
                                                   <input type="submit" class="btn btn-flat btn-primary  btn-sm" value="Go" />
                                           </span>
                                   </div>
                           </form>
                   </div>
