    Tikal

    Since the temperature here will reach 30 to 40 degrees at noon, and it will usually rain in the afternoon, the local tour guide recommends to report to the group at 4:30 in the morning to visit Tikal, the most famous Mayan ruins in Guatemala. It was once the capital of one of the most powerful states in the ancient Mayan period. The monument here was built in the fourth century BC and was abandoned at the end of the tenth century. The classical period…

    I thought there would be a private minibus from Copan to go directly to the place I want to go to in Guatemala, but because there are not enough tourists now, there is no such private car to pick up the job, so I can only take public transportation. So yesterday I spent the whole day on four buses. Fortunately, I didn’t need to wait for the bus in the middle. It took a total of nine hours, and I arrived at the tour at 7 o’clock in the evening…

    During the summer vacation, I originally planned to play Panama and Costa Rica this time, but I didn't expect that the place was small, and all those who were interested in playing for three weeks were finished. After flying to El Salvador ten days ago, I planned to fly directly to Mexico and then fly back to the United States. As a result, other travelers I met at the family hotel suggested that I take the land border crossing to Guatemala and then Mexico...

    As soon as I went out in the morning, I saw three cows wandering around unattended. Then I went to visit the Tazumal pre-Columbian archaeological site about the Mayans. In order to save time when traveling, and there is generally no kitchen, I rarely cook by myself. But I'm tired of eating pupusa these days, and I plan to make Mexican quesa...

    Santa Ana (1)

    When I went to Guatemala in February at the beginning of the year, I had a layover in El Salvador. I only stayed in the capital, San Salvador, for one day. This time, I planned to visit other places. It was almost four in the afternoon. I took the bus from the airport to the bus station in the south of the city. The language partner I met last time came to pick me up on a motorcycle to the bus station in the west, and then took the bus to the small town of Santa…

    Costa Rica (3)

    From Monteverde to La Fortuna by minibus, boat, and minibus. I strolled around the city center at noon, asked several tour groups to compare prices, and wrote down the lowest price on a note. The last owner I asked caught up after I left and asked me to show him the note I had written down the price, saying that because…

    Costa Rica (2)

    Participated in a suspension bridge trekking group in Monteverde. The tour guide introduced us a lot of knowledge about Cloudforest. Carrying binoculars along the way, we saw a lot of strange animals and plants. We took a lot of pictures with our own mobile phones on the lens of his binoculars. Super clear photos. Nature is really amazing. …

    Costa Rica (1)

    Entering Costa Rica from Panama, stamping a stamp on exit, and stamping another stamp on entry, basically no questions were asked, and the prepared bank account certificate, departure air ticket, and vaccine certificate were not read. I feel that if you don’t queue up and walk across the street, it’s fine. Of course, this is considered an illegal entry and it will be troublesome when you leave the country. While waiting for the long-distance bus, there is a…

    Take the coach from Panama City to Valle de Antón. The next morning, I got up early and went to La India Dormida to climb the mountain. The hostel provided free bicycles, and it took ten minutes to ride there. There are many waterfalls along the way up the mountain, the scenery is beautiful, and the whole Valle de…

    Panama (1)

    It took less than five hours to fly directly from New York to Panama. When I got off the plane, a heat wave hit my face, which was super humid and hot. Take a taxi to the city center, chat with the driver and ask him to recommend local delicacies, but I can't tell. He said that the pressure in big cities is too high, and he generally does not go out to eat. When he arrived at the sofa owner's house, he couldn't say any local specialties. Hey, just take it slow...
