Iconic colonial arch framing the Iglesia de Santa Catalina and Volcán de Agua beyond — a staple of Antigua Guatemala. Photograph the pastel façades, cobblestone Calle del Arco, and the volcano backdrop. Best at sunrise or blue hour for soft light and fewer tourists; golden hour from the opposite end gives warm tones. Pedestrian area with nearby paid parking and many stairs; no entry fee. Respect local vendors and church services.
