xela

Well I am behind in my writing. Went to Xela last saturday night. Stayed in the central part of town near Parque Centroamerica. The following pictures are from there. The park and the old part of town are really nice. Old colonial buildings, cobble stone streets, etc. Forget the name of the Hotel that I stayed in, but 150Q was way too much. It cost 15Q by bus to get here and then I walked from the bus station to zona 1, which is where I stayed - maybe 2 miles.


















This building was built about 1900 and is a pedestrian mall, that you can walk thru. There are several businesses inside, one particular of note.






The business of note is Salon Tecun, the oldest running bar in Guatemala - since the 30's
