No other town has the charm and appeal of Antigua Guatemala.

From its colonial architecture to its beautiful surroundings, this town is considered to be one of the most beautiful in Central America.

Founded in 1543, Antigua was once the third most important Spanish colon in the Americas. More than 30 monastic orders called Antigua home and built stunning monasteries, convents and cathedrals in the town.

The story of Antigua's eventful arrival to the site where it presently lies is a rich story that plays itself out like a novel full of adventure, conflict and passion.

The first antigua was founded near the Maya city of Iximché. It was soon abandoned when the Kaqchiquel residents rebelled at the Spanish demands for gold. The Spanish moved their capital to the valley between the Agua and Fuego volcanoes. But fate was against them and the town was swept away by a flood. Soon after the town was moved to its present day location where it has stood for more than 400 years.
