Antigua is the oldest and most beautiful city in America. As early as 1543, Antigua was the capital of all colonial times in Central America, and the Government House of Spain was also set up here. After the great earthquake of 1773, the volcano destroyed the once-prosperous capital in an instant, robbing it of all its prosperity and beauty overnight. The whole city of Antigua was destroyed, so the capital was moved to Guatemala City. After this subversive mountain city, the splendor has disappeared for more than 200 years, and Antigua has never swaggered again. After being dull, Antigua is now run by the last remaining Indians. These hardworking Indians became later coffee producers. They not only found the rich and attractive unique smell of Antigua coffee, but also brought it to people all over the world.
