Lago de Amatitlán

Lago de Amatitlán - Guatemala

Lake Amatitlán, with the Agua Volcano in the background, is located only 25 kilometres from the capital. For such a nice lake, it's surprising to see that it isn't surrounded by luxury villas and cottages where rich Guatemalans would come to relax on weekends. On the contrary, the lake is surrounded by farms, business, and small landowners that seems to be far from rich.
