Huehuetenango
Guatemala
This highland city in western Guatemala and the last major settlement before the Mexican border at La Mesilla, Huehuetenango has a colonial past shaped by Mercedarian friars and celebrates its patron feast on 16 July in honour of the Virgen del Carmen. The city serves as a practical stop for travellers heading between Guatemala and Mexico, with coffee among its primary exports and a departmental capital role that gives it the services of a regional centre.
