Cultural exhibits abound in La Antigua Guatemala, a world-class tourism destination.

The photographer's "Afghan Girl", the unforgettable image on the cover of National Geographic in 1984, impacted the world as the face of every war refugee, and is on display right now in Antigua.

For Casa Muriel residents and guests, we organize escorted outings every week, to engage our minds, nourish the soul, and to learn something new every day.

Guatemalan Indigenous Traditions

The Museo de Tejido gives us a close-up view and guided tour of the production methods of the weaving experts in San Antonio Aguas Calientes, just west of Antigua.

In the center of town, we visited the Manos de Maya, a women's sewing co-operative. This organization offers local women the training and materials they need to produce a gorgeous line of unique Guatemalan fashions for sale, providing economic opportunities not otherwise available to them.

The Lavender Farm

Getting out in nature with fresh air and volcano views offers a different perspective of the surrounding environment. It was cloudy and cool when we visited the Lavender Farm, but the mountain breeze and dreamy floral aroma made for a lovely afternoon.

Streaming Movies, Big Screen TV

Closer to home, Casa Muriel residents enjoy the comfy sofas and big TV to watch quality movies - comedy, documentary, romance, or action, with thousands of choices.

Our Sala is open to everyone, offering computer and business services, exercise equipment, and everyone's favorite: Relaxing at home to watch your favorite shows with popcorn and a beverage.
