Parroquia Nuestra Señora de la Asunción

Aloof from the traffic of Jocotenango's main thoroughfare stands the church, as it has for centuries, its peach facade graced by baroque columns and elaborate stucco behind elaborate gardens and a majestic ceiba tree. The church is particularly known for its processions during Lent.
