The famous arch in Antigua. The city is recognized for this yellow arch and it can be found in many pieces of art, postcards, etc. Antigua is a very popular tourist destination, evident by the massive amount of white people or ¨gringos¨that are walking up and down the streets. The Guatemalan people are for the most part extremely friendly though.
This is the hotel we stayed in when we arrived in Antigua for the first 2 nights. My roommate had problems with getting to Guatemala so I had it to myself while we where there.
I went with Trey to a museum that was behind a hotel that he had stayed at when he was here last year. It was the most amazing thing. This is a view of the ruins, with tapastries hanging down covering old paintings of religious figures. There were also crypts that you could explore, as well as several museums with modern and ancient art displayed.
This was the most amazing ruin in Antigua.
We stumbled across a Jade factory where these women were polishing and grinding the stone.
