    (Translated by Google) Guatemala City is a very representative tourist and religious city, its first records date back to the year 1625 where the tertiary Franciscan monk Juan Corz lived, who lived as a hermit and brought the Image of the Virgen del Carmen. Founding the Church of Cerrito del Carmen, an architectural jewel with images of great religious and cultural value, is a viewpoint of the city. El Cerrito del Carmen constituted a territorial limit for the Valle de la Virgen. It is an excellent tourist and family destination for all people, with a wide variety of flora and fauna, parking, an inspiring source of musicians and painters, a mobile library and games for children. YOUR church offers Mass, Monday through Saturday from 7 am and 3 pm, Sundays 7 am, 9 am, 11 am and 4 pm.

    Cerrito Del Carmen (or Garden of Carmen) is a city park that surrounds the oldest church in the city located on top of the hill known as Del Carmen church. The garden and the church are about a 30 minute walk from the city center through the neighborhoods. Therefore, they feel somewhat secluded from other places of interest. Yet they are well worth a visit. The garden is well maintained with multiple terraces and places to sit as well as children’s playgrounds and a large fountain. It also offers beautiful views of the city sprawling around the hill. The church is famous for its Virgin Mary’s image which is believed to be sacred. The image is currently placed in the middle of the massive gold altar along with other icons and precious artifacts. The park area around the church building presents a nice walk or sitting area. At the bottom of the hill or at the entrance to the garden one may find a paid bathroom (Q2). Plan to spend one to two hours at the location. The church is open every day 8am to 6pm and it is free to enter.

    What a pleasant surprise to find this beautifully landscaped park and it's charming 1520's church in the middle of downtown guate. A must for history buffs and treat for your eyes.

👍👍 Fun little inexpensive amusement park for the kids, they turn rides on as you want to ride them and it's not very busy at all and the rides are one or two dollars each 10-15 quetzales per ride.
