Favorite thing: There's many ruins to look at in Antigua Guatemala, it's absolutely fantastic to see the contrast of colors and the rustic of 'em next to newly sprout bouganvilia flowers.... very common in Guatemala! I just loooooove taking pictures in Guatemala, especially Antigua!!

Some of the ruins you can visit include Santa Clara, Capuchinas, La Merced, Santo Domingo, San Francisco, El Carmen and El Calvario.

Favorite thing: After the earthquake of June 1773 and February 1976, life continued with colonial environment in Antigua Guatemala. It being imposed by nature and by law, almost the same as decreeing exile to a dying city...... and now beautiful to admire all those ruins that talk of the past! This here are Las Ruinas de Capuchinas.....

Whole Lotta Shaking Going On

 The Spanish colonial capital of Guatemala was based in Ciudad Vieja on the lower slopes of Volcan Agua. As one might expect, this wasn't the best location as a large mudslide devastated the town in......

  Antigua was our base for the first few days in Guatemala, and although I loved everywhere that we visited in the country, it was probably my favourite. I imagine that must be true of many visitors to...

 This is the wonderful view from el cerrito in Antigua. This is the same place where the monumental cross is located up on the hill.
