Santiago de Guatemala (Antigua Guatemala) is a small but very special city in different aspects. For me, who was born here, it is like an open-air museum, clean, safe, with very kind and attentive people and easy to explore on foot.
What makes this city special is its people, its cobbled streets, its gastronomy, its traditions, its history, museums, etc. In addition to having been declared a cultural heritage of humanity by UNESCO, it has been declared a Monument City of America , a National Monument and in the 16th century King Felipe II of Spain gave it the title of the Very Noble and Very Loyal City of Santiago de The Knights of Guatemala.
