Pacaya
Located about 30 miles southwest of Guatemala City, not far from Antigua, Pacaya is an active volcano in Guatemala and is a coveted tourist destination that has the popularity thanks to its activity almost completely, and continues, along with the area surrounding the volcano member of the same national park established to preserve and monitor the tourism of this beautiful region. A true spectacle of nature that awaits visitors to give unique and breathtaking emotion. The Pacaya, which is part of the volcanic chain called Central American Volcanic Arc, (a chain of volcanoes that stretches from northwest to southeast along the Pacific coast of Central America), erupted for the first time about 23000 years ago and, since the Spanish conquest, has erupted at least 23 other times. Not to be missed for those who went on a visit to Guatemala. |
