Tal vez aqu\u00ed en Xela no tengamos la gran abundancia de edificios coloniales para igualar a Antigua, pero eso no quiere decir que no haya sitios hist\u00f3ricos interesantes y bellos edificios para visitar. Este art\u00edculo te da la idea de algunos lugares que puedes buscar alrededor de Xela para encontrar historia y cultura.<\/span><\/p>\n

Iglesia de la Ermita de la Concepci\u00f3n \u2013 Salcaj\u00e1<\/span><\/h2>\n
\"\"<\/a>
Iglesia de la Ermita<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Construida en 1524, esta iglesia antigua sostiene la afirmaci\u00f3n de ser la primera iglesia en ser construida en Centro Am\u00e9rica y tambi\u00e9n tiene la primera imagen de la Virgen de Concepci\u00f3n. Se encuentra en Salcaj\u00e1, un pueblo cerca de Xela, y un bono adicional a esta particular visita es el elaborado esp\u00edritu frutal que puede ser probado en muchos puntos alrededor de la misma iglesia.<\/span><\/p>\n

Mientras la iglesia es bastante impresionante y \u00fanica desde fuera, es desafortunadamente muy improbable que sea posible verla de adentro. La visita es solo un viaje corto en bus desde Xela e, incluyendo una r\u00e1pida exploraci\u00f3n del pueblo de Salcaj\u00e1 deber\u00eda tomar solo unas pocas horas. Si tienes suerte, y la iglesia est\u00e1 abierta, es de entrada gratuita. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Iglesia del Calvario \u2013 San Adr\u00e9s Xecul<\/span><\/h2>\n
\"\"<\/a>
Iglesia del Calvario<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

La cara famosa de muchas gu\u00edas de Lonely Planet para Guatemala hace algunos a\u00f1os, seguramente es una de las m\u00e1s coloridas iglesias que alg\u00fan d\u00eda veras! Se cree que fue construida en el siglo XVII, San Andres Xecul combina el aspecto religioso de la iglesia con el amor de Guatemala por todas las cosas coloridas.<\/span><\/p>\n

Un bono extra en las caracter\u00edsticas de este sitio es el poste de madera que se encuentra en la esquina opuesta a la iglesia. El poste es utilizado en determinados festivales en el pueblo, donde alguien debe escalar el poste y luego cruzar por una cuerda hacia la iglesia. Una peque\u00f1a caminata hacia arriba de la colina, la peque\u00f1a colorida capilla tambi\u00e9n ofrece asombro hacia el valle que esta abajo del pueblo. El viaje es un poco m\u00e1s largo que la Ermita de la Concepci\u00f3n en Salcaj\u00e1 pero creemos que Calvario ofrece un poco m\u00e1s por tu dinero en t\u00e9rminos de cosas por hacer.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Teatro Municipal<\/span><\/h2>\n
\"\"<\/a>
Teatro Municipal<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Adem\u00e1s del Pasaje Enriquez, el teatro es el edificio m\u00e1s impresionante en Xela. Construido por Durini en 1895, se encuentra tan solo un poco cuesta arriba del Parque Central como el centro de la cultura en Xela. Vale la pena estar pendiente de la variedad de presentaciones de alta calidad que se presentan ac\u00e1, o si nada llama tu atenci\u00f3n debes tomar 20 minutos para echar un vistazo alrededor de este impresionante edifico.<\/span><\/p>\n

Las presentaciones son a muy buen precio e incluso a veces son gratuitas. Si estas ac\u00e1 en marzo es el mejor tiempo para visitar el teatro, con m\u00fasicos visitando de todo el rededor del mundo para presentarse completamente gratis en el Festival anual de Jazz.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Cementerio General<\/span><\/h2>\n
\"\"<\/a>
Cementerio General<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Tienes una tarde libre y deseas una caminata bajo el sol? Aqu\u00ed hay una opci\u00f3n econ\u00f3mica y sencilla para un paseo que te llene con un poco de cultura. Los cementerios de Guatemala, a diferencia de lo que puedas conocer en casa, son un lugar \u00fanico para visitar por sus impresionantes y coloridas tumbas. Se dice que el mejor personaje para conocer que se encuentra enterrado en el cementerio es el primer presidente del Sexto Estado de Los Altos, Roberto Molina.<\/span><\/p>\n

El cementerio es f\u00e1cil de encontrar caminando desde el Parque Central hacia el Parque El Calvario, donde la entrada puede ser encontrada atr\u00e1s de la iglesia al extremo de la cuadra.<\/span><\/p>\n
