Puerto Quetzal
Drive into the mountains to beautiful old Antigua, once the country's colonial capital, and discover its lovely bougainvilleadraped buildings and breathtaking views of emerald volcanoes. Travel to famed Lake Atitlan and step back in time as you encounter the indigenous people in all their finery still living along the lakeshore. Or better yet, fly to Flores and experience the magnificent and enigmatic Mayan temples and palaces of the Tikal complex, surrounded by jungle.
Attractions
From Puerto Quetzal the choices are many, the busy capital of Guatemala City, Antigua, simply enchanting with its bonbon- pink houses, language schools and near- perfect weather, lovely Lake Atitlan, where modern Mayans still tell their stories on backstrap looms. Not to be missed are the ancient Mayan ruins at Tikal - a secretive jungle plaza flanked by seven great stone temples
Currency
Quetzal is the currency used in Guatemala which is divided into 100 centavos.
