Cobble stones in Guatemala

Nestled in between 3 volcanos in the highands of Guatemala, the town of Antigua is unlike any other in Central America. This 17th century, heritage listed town immaculately retains its original colonial architecture, the streets are spotless and vibrant mayan colours are seen on every corner. Even though the place is littered with tourists, it doesn’t feel as westernised as other towns in the region - eg Costa Rica. Most outsiders are here studying spanish, volunteering or using Antigua as a base for a huge range of adventure activities... or getting hammered 7 days a week.
