    Antigua was destroyed twice by fire and eventually the capital was moved to Guate City. Apparently the rule is that ruins must be left preserved in the city, thus there are beautiful signts like in this photoe. One club, the Casbah, has an upstaris patio that overlooks the insides to an old church.

    The old cathedral is adjacent to the current one. It has been incredibly damage by earthquakes, but visitors can walk through its ruins and those of a neighboring rectory-type building.

    This is a fun exploration for anyone and is a great chance to climb through an early example of the meshing of Spanish and American styles of architecture. It's not too big or small and has enough surviving structure to give one an intriguing glimpse into the past.

    Another of Antigua's church ruins started in 1638 and abandoned after the 1773 earthquake. This church is also the site of a local handicraft market.

    Located behind the Catedral de Santiago. The 17th century cathedral was destroyed by the earthquake in 1773. The ruins have an almost ancient Rome quality to them - the architectural spaces are more defined by the partial arches and walls.
