Lanquin

Fun Info About Lanquin

Lanquin is a small town located in Guatemala’s central highlands & the most important cardamom producer of the country. It gets its name because of its proximity to the Lanquin Cave System.

These caves were one of the first national parks to be declared in Guatemala and are such a huge complex of limestone caves that not even experienced explorers have been able to find where they end.

The caves offer travelers an opportunity to explore the inner depths of the earth & if you get there at the right time you might even see thousands of bats starting their nightly flight. They are also an important place for modern Mayas from all over Guatemala who believe the cave is the heart of heaven & guards the secrets of the world.
