The language spoken in Guatemala is Spanish. In
Guatemala, as in all countries, there are very famous
customs and traditions such as Holy Week, Dance of the
Moors, Santiago Festival of giant kites and Las posadas.
That in some of these festivities food such as Tamales,
pozole, bread with beans, pupusas, etc. are eaten.
In order to get one of these delicious foods you need

easy since they are very happy people despite the fact that it is a
poor country with many economic and social problems and
they consider themselves happier people than those who live in
European countries
