Sololá is a small town in terms of the central downtown area. You can stroll all around it in about half a day. Since this is the departmental capital you will notice government offices for natural resources, education, and forestry.
Central Park
- South side- Catholic church. If you walk downhill on the west side of the church you will arrive at the cemetary and have a fantastic view of the lake.
- North side- This is the route buses take to leave town to go to 4 Caminos, Antigua, Guatemala City. If you go to the northwest corner of the park and walk north a few blocks you will come to the Public Library on the left side of the street. It is upstairs. It is very different from Panajachel's public library. Walk up further to arrive at a bakery on the right side of the street.
-East side- market and food vendors
-West side- directly across the street is a friendly typical food restaurant. If it is crowded on a market day you may have to share a table. Great salsa!
