On my most recent visit to Antigua I made it a point to go by Parquet Central to just sit and relax and enjoy the scene. I like to be there the hour before sunset and just take in the activity in the square. You have the women trying to sell their souvenirs and the men doing their shoeshines. You have the late afternoon sun filtering through the trees. You have the historic colonial buildings around the square. You have the volcanoes to the south and west. I find it relaxing to just sit back and take it all in until the sun sets.
如果你去安提瓜岛,最好的时间就是当地的复活节(圣周或者西方的复活节)。你会见到世界上最漂亮的地毯!整个过程和氛围都很棒,非常值得来这里参观!
Sit on a bench and take it all in! The energy in the park is incredible and very befitting of the Antigua atmosphere. Enjoy.
This is where you'll want to meet up with friends, start walking tours, catch a taxi or start your Antigua exploring. Everything is near by: markets, churches, museums, restaurants and shops.
the barista joint has the best supreme omelette in town! Q45 gets you some very good coffee and fresh OJ to go with it
Like all main squares it is a great place to sit and watch the locals and tourists go about their business. There are the usual street vendors who are not an issue if you are pleasant in declining their wares. Obviously the heart of this lovely Colonial City and a good starting point to explore the rest. Don't miss the markets next to the bus station.
看到穿着漂亮的民族服装的玛雅人以及在1700年的大地震中夷为平地(和其他所有在安提瓜的教堂)的大教堂让人感到无比欣喜。
被殖民时期的建筑环绕着的漂亮的中央广场。周围绿树葱葱,为公园长椅遮去了阳光,让你享受树下的美好时光。广场上的旅游信息亭里发布很多很好的旅游信息。傍晚的时候,我们就看着月亮爬升到教堂的顶端。
I would enjoy my morning coffee here and observe the atmosphere. On a couple of occasions, a local would sit next to me and chat. I was open to this, so it was a pleasurable experience. I found it relaxing and peaceful, pretty and clean. It's right in the heart of Antigua, so there are always numerous tourists here.
Very relaxing area with several restaurants and shopping. Be prepared too be bombarded with people trying to sell you necklaces and hand made flutes and other arts.
