Antigua is a tranquil and charming Spanish colonial city located in the highlands of Guatemala. An idyllic setting between three volcanoes: Agua, Acatenango, and Fuego contributes to the peaceful feeling of this city.
In addition to relaxation, Antigua offers a wide variety of quality restaurants and bars and is known as probably the safest city in Guatemala. Beautiful colonial-style architecture is used throughout Antigua.
During the week leading up to Easter, the largest celebration in Guatemala takes place in Antigua. Also, the town fair takes place every year on July 25th, complete with parades and music.
