A
ANTIGUA
GRANADA
HYLAND
ntigua, a UNESCO
World Heritage site,
and Granada, the first
European established
city in the Americas, are
thriving, modern Central
American cities that
exhibit deep Spanish
and pre-European visual
cultures. Both places
show a strong Baroque
architectural influence,
often alongside or
mixed with a Moorish
inflection. Each city
merits an individual trip,
but the opportunity
for observing both
on a single journey is
a remarkable travel
opportunity
worth
considering. Presented
here is a photographic
essay highlighting a few
of the many interesting
sites and textures of
Antigua and Granada.
