TuProximoDestino: The Old One

The Old One Guatemala

Antigua Guatemala is a stunning and enchanting colonial city with nearly 500 years of history, blessed with a favorable climate and an extraordinary view of the Fuego and Acatenango volcanoes. The city's beauty is breathtaking, so much so that it was designated a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1979. I guarantee that visitors will be captivated by its historical, culinary, and cultural attractions. It was established in the Panchoy Valley and named the third capital of Guatemala. This city is frozen in time, caught between the thick walls of its temples, still preserving restored buildings from the 16th century. The city's main attractions include the Palace of the Captains General, the Santa Catalina Convent and Arch, the Main Plaza, the Jade Museum, the Antigua Cathedral of Guatemala, the Museum of the University of San Carlos, the Holy Route of Brother Pedro, among others. I suggest you hike up Cerro de la Cruz for a stunning view of the entire city.
