Sometimes we even guide ourselves with these articles that tell us the top 10 things to do in a place, the best restaurants to visit, etc. And although they clearly work, many times they don’t allow us to get to know a country from its most genuine side.

These are not ordinary rugs but alfombras de aserrín, or sawdust carpets, a breathtaking tradition that blends art, culture, and devotion. I’ve always been fascinated by how these carpets transform simple streets into living canvases, inviting us to pause, admire, and connect deeply with Guatemalan heritage.
