Message from Tamara Knell

The Arco de Santa Catalina in Antigua is a historical landmark that was originally built as a bridge for nuns to cross without being seen. Over the years, it has undergone renovations and is now an iconic symbol of the city. The arch, with its yellow facade and antique clock tower, stands as a reminder of the rich history and architectural beauty of Antigua.

The area around the arc is great for dining and shopping. There is often buskers in the street and food vendors as well. Whenever there is a holiday or event, it is typically held in this area.
