Guatemala City

by easterntrekker - last update: Apr 2, 2007

Our quick trip through

We didn't really spend much time here , just an overnight on our way back to Costa Rica . From what I could see it has a new area ( we could see the Sherton from our plane window ). It also has a crowded , poor and intimidating old city . We stayed in Zona 1 ( the old area).
We felt safe in our hotel and other guests told us they roamed around the market all day , with no problems.

Pros:"Both an old and richer area and the original and unkept old city"
Cons:"Lots of pollution and poverty"
In A Nutshell:"Not a place I would be interested in spending much time"
