Franja Transversal del Norte

Filed under: MY THOUGHTS

Me recuerdo de haber escuchado de este proyecto cuando esta en Guatemala. A pasado mucho tiempo y este proyecto no a empezado. Estaba leyendo en el periodico de hoy de que finalmente se esta poniendo en marcha la construccion de esta carretera que empezara en el Puerto Modesto Mendez en Izabal y terminara en Huehuetenango. Este proyecto, es una carretera que unira los diferentes departamentos de la zona norte. Correra paralelo con la panamericana. De esta forma, seria mas facil para la gente el viajar a traves de el pais. Si este camino se construye finalmente, la gente de estos lugares no tendrian la necesidad de viajar por la carretera panamericana. Esperemos de que si se construye, mejore el comercio de esta region.

Wajxaqib Nob

Filed under: GUATEMALA

Wajxaqib Nob is a site located in the village of Xatinap V in Santa Cruz del Quiche. This site has just been declared sacred by different leaders of the different maya gruops of Guatemala. This site was discovered three years ago by the owner of the land. In this site, have been found different stones, jade and ceramic. It is thought that this site, dates from the Pre-classic maya period. The different leaders have made different altars and it is just to be used to pay homage to the different mayan deities. There are still a lot of people that follow the mayan beliefs in Guatemala. Apparently, everybody can go to this site. The most important thing is that the owner of the land gave it away for the site to be built.
