Antigua, Guatemala

Antigua, Guatemala

Antigua is a beautiful colonial-era city with rugged cobblestone streets. It sits in a small valley surrounded by three volcanoes, which are clearly visible from various points in the city: Volcán de Agua, Volcán Acatenango and Volcán Fuego. Fuego was quite active on my second night in Antigua, and a long plume of fire was rising from its crater. What a beautiful view!
