Cerro de la Cruz
The Cerro de la Cruz, a hill north of the city with a big cross mounted on it, offers the best view of Antigua. You can climb the hill on foot (20-30 min. from the Plaza Mayor), or get there by car or taxi. The trail leading up to the overlook has a well-earned reputation for petty crime, so never go alone. The tourist police will accompany you during certain hours; check in at their office at 4a Avenida Norte, next to the Palacio del Noble Ayuntamiento.
