We were told to visit by a local we met in a shop. There is a nominal entrance fee. However inside is a quiet haven with some lovely gardens and the ruins which are being restored. There are narratives with photos to show the progress. Also good toilets. To visit you come past a green square where the locals go about their business and the Tanque La Union which appears to be the communal laundry washing area. Don't miss.

No labeling or posts anywhere so you are forced to hire a guide. Only at the entrance they have a recreation of how the place was originally but no explanations at all.

This review is late, but as I'm planning a return to the country, this site particularly stands out in memory as one of my favorite places. Largely, it was a favorite because of the area around the fountain, which was very peaceful, and the beautiful flowers growing there. I just liked the symbolism of the new growing out of the ruins of the old.

It is worth visiting for a small fee. My understanding is that is was built in the 17th century and was a place where nuns lived. The view is great from the top floor where the fountain and top of other structures are visible.

They're rebuilding part of it now, but the ruins are very interesting from a photographic standpoint. If you're a foreigner, they charge you 40Q to get in versus the 5Q they charge Guatemalans. I think I need to write my congressman about jacking up the rates 8x for foreigners at our national monuments and tourist attractions!

Small quiet ruin, nice courtyard, crypt but not lit so couldn't see what was down there. Not expensive but seemed a little pricy for the time spent there.

This site is the more comprehensive of all of the ruins in Guatemala! This will take over an hour to do and I highly recommend taking the tour because there are not signs and no information about the place other than following a guide. The tour guide is well worth the time; it is the only way to find out about the place. You will end up taking a lot of pictures. This place is beautiful. This is a great place for families as well; there were a few families lounging in the gardens, a couple on a date.
