Central Park of yesteryear

The creativity of Cesar, gave them the stamp of the Central Park of Guatemala, an image in which the fund may be the National Palace, now converted into Museum and is now called the National Palace of Culture. Construction began on July 4, 1937 and was inaugurated on November 10, 1943 during the government of Jorge Ubico.

This old view of the park makes me think that things have not changed much when it was changed.

People like you take your atolito, some come to sing and others to take pictures next to the source. I do not have many details, such as shoeshine boys, candy vendors, sellers of newspapers in order. There is a little bit of everything. Later we will go to other characters so colorful they are part of our people. :)
