With the arrival of Cruz Conde in December 1925, the Commissioner of the Latin American Exhibition, is intended to give the final impetus for their completion, for this reason again to start diplomatic contacts, inviting Latin American countries still participation had not materialized.

On November 2, 1926, the Minister of Spain to the Central American States responds to the English Government in the following terms: "Guatemala will participate in the most modest and less expensive", later also reports that Panama, El Salvador and Costa Rica will be present, but concurring within the American Galleries, on Honduras and Nicaragua, immersed in revolutionary conflicts and civil war, excuse their attendance so it follows that the American presence in the Exhibition Center was uncertain, as well as the reasons, the above set republics had an inauspicious economic situation given its lack of resources.

But keeping to the concurrence of Guatemala, we advance two more years, until November 26, 1928, when the Presidency of the Republic appoints D. Manuel Herrera and Herrera, Consul in Seville, as delegate of the representation of Guatemala, as in early 1929, the government of that country gives its pursuant to the offer by the Executive Committee of the Exhibition, a plot of 150 m2 in the American Galleries, free. This "stand" would be between those occupied by Ecuador and Panama.

In the month of February 1929, the Minister for Works, get an allocation of $ 30,000 for Guatemala's participation in the Fair of Seville, immediately communicates this fact by telegraph on March 1, showing their interest in participating with a permanent flag. Cruz Conde communicated to the Minister Plenipotentiary of Guatemala in Spain joy and advised that the Technical Steering Committee had drafted a flag in May 1926.

On April 10, 1929, a month short of the opening of the exhibition, Guatemala confirmed their attendance with a permanent flag 18 X 10 m2 built on a plot of 30 X 20 m2, which the Committee had allocated next to the Pavilion of Venezuela, the only of the international pavilions have disappeared, Avd de las Delicias, close to the Hall of Argentina. Started work immediately.

This delay in making a final decision was due to appear, the lack of interest of the growers to show their products at the Exhibition and the unstable political situation, which was that the State had to meet only the costs concurrence to it.

Maastricht es la capital de la provincia más septentrional de los Países Bajos, Limburg. El origen de la ciudad se encuentra en la necesidad de crear y proteger un puente que asegurase el paso del río Mosa en la época romana. Se considera que es la ciudad más antigua de los Países Bajos, aunque es éste un título por el que disputa con Nijmega.

La Basílica de San Servasio y la Iglesia de San Juan desde la parte trasera de la Plaza Vrijthof

Hoy en día Maastricht es una ciudad con un fuerte ambiente estudiantil, pues es sede de varias instituciones universitarias con bastante fama. Provocado por el buen tiempo (un par de días al año), el centro estaba rebosane de gente, terrazas y carpas de todo tipo. Desde clubs de bailes enseñando a los holandeses a bailar salsa (la clase relativa a la articulación de la cintura se la habían saltado) hasta puestos de venta de quesos o arenques crudos, que se comen ostentosamente balanceándolos encima de los bigotes...

La Plaza del Mercado, donde se encuentra el Ayuntamiento, tenía este aspecto tan concurrido.

Estatua en la Plaza del Mercado.

La lista de cosas por ver en Maastricht es notable. Of particular note Vrijthof Square, which contrasts strikingly passion red tower of the Gothic church of San Juan with neighboring San Servasio Romanesque basilica. With its origins in the sixth century, the basilica has been rebuilt several times. Currently, the oldest part dating back to the eleventh century, making it the oldest in the Netherlands.

Vrijthof Plaza. Mu Bonica.

also highlights the Basilica of Our Lady, a building described in our travel guide as "massive", and it is really impossible to put another qualifier.

La fachada es así de... masiva. No hay sinónimo posible.

La parte de atrás es más bonita, pero está literalmente apantallada por restaurantes. Que tampoco digo yo que esté mal...

La ciudad conserva igualmente gran parte de sus murallas. Entre ellas se encuentra la Puerta Helpoort, del siglo XIII, la más antigua de todos los Países Bajos.

Helpoort, la Puerta del Infierno. Me apuesto lo que queráis a que encontramos veinte grupos heavy metal con discos llamados así.

Paseando por la orilla del río se alternan las construcciones modernas (qué digo modernas, postmodernas incluso!) con iglesias clásicas.

Iglesia de San Martín.

Museo Bonnefanten de arte contemporáneo. Me muero de ganas de saber con qué nombre lo llaman los habitantes de Maastricht.

Y es que uno nunca termina de sorprenderse. Buscando información sobre la ciudad resulta que nos encontramos con que en Europa hay un corredor llamado El plátano Azul , que engloba a las regiones con mayor concentración mundial de gente, dinero y capacidad industrial: Londres, Bruselas, Amsterdam, Colonia, Frankfurt, Luzemburgo, Stuttgart, Strasbourg, Zurich and Milan. Maastricht is thus in a privileged place. I would really like my life in a place called The Blue Banana.

If a couple of years I have wondered what país estaba Aquisgrán, mi probabilidad de acertar habría sido del 50% en el mejor de los casos. Y es que a pesar del importante papel de esta ciudad en la baja Edad Media, su importancia fue decayendo con los años hasta quedar eclipsada por las más florecientes ciudades de Colonia, Maastricht o Luxemburgo. Y es que tampoco ayuda el tema lingüístico: En alemán la llaman Aachen , en francés Aix-la-Chapelle , y en holandés Aken . No ayuda, no.

La Catedral de Aquisgrán fue uno de los doce primeros lugares declarados Patrimonio de la Humanidad por la Unesco, en 1978.

Pues queridos amigos, frente a la cantidad de gente que habría situado la ciudad actual en Francia (yo el primero), debo informaros que se encuentra en Alemania, aunque a menos de 5 kilómetros de la frontera holandesa y belga. A los que ya lo supiérais, os felicito por no compartir nuestra ignorancia: sois dignos lectores de nuestro blog.

Este pobre hombre casi se cae a la fuente de la sorpresa. ¿Alemania? , dijo apesadumbrado.

Y es que Aquisgrán fue una de las ciudades más importantes de la Europa del siglo VIII, capital del recién nacido Imperio Carolingio , primer gran imperio Catholic Europe after the fall of the Roman Empire and the precursor to the way the Holy Roman Empire. This empire began with the reign of Pepin the Short, son of acclaimed general Charles Martel would get to defeat the Muslims and finally halt their advance from the newly conquered Spain into Europe in Poitiers, and had its peak with the coronation Rome as the emperor of his son Charlemagne. However, internal tensions caused the empire was crumbling after the death of Charlemagne.

Statue of Charlemagne, omnipresent throughout the city. His work and his own remains became an object of veneration for subsequent Germanic and Frankish kings.

most famous monument of the city is the spectacular Cathedral. The origin of it goes back to the late eighth century when Charlemagne's Palatine Chapel was built within the palace complex he built in the city. When completed the construction of the chapel, was the largest dome north of the Alps, competing directly with the impressive Hagia Sophia in Constantinople (now Istanbul ). At his death, Charlemagne was buried here, sitting on a throne and a scepter in hand, until the middle of the twelfth century the Emperor Frederick I put her remains in the sarcophagus of gold and silver is still in the Cathedral.

Interior of the Palatine Chapel.

addition to the remains of Charlemagne, the site saves several relics subject of devout pilgrimages during the Middle Ages: the layer of the Virgin Mary, Christ's garments, the hood with the beheading of John the Baptist and the loincloth Christ (translated directly from the wikipedia , I do not look at me!). This led to the extension of the enclosure to accommodate the large influx of pilgrims. The end result was a unique building with a mix of architectural styles very curious and very unique beauty.

Enfrente de la Catedral se encuentra el Ayuntamiento, construido a mediados del siglo XIV sobre las ruinas del antiguo palacio de Carlomagno. De este palacio aún conserva una torre y parte de los cimientos.

El ayuntamiento, del siglo XIV, conserva restos del palacio original de Carlomagno, como la torre que se ve a la derecha de la imagen.

Cerca se encuentra la Iglesia de San Adalberto, una de las más antiguas de la ciudad (consagrada en el año 1005). Hay bastantes iglesias y torrecillas por el centro que dan un toque interesante a la ciudad.

La cercana Iglesia de San Adalberto tiene en el pórtico una imagen de Carlomagno sentado en el trono.

Llegando en el coche nos llamó la atención la Iglesia de San José, bastante curiosa.

Estampa del centro, con una iglesia gótica totalmente rodeada de edificios de cristal.

Una de las cosas que más nos gustó del centro de la ciudad es la gran cantidad de estatuas bonitas que había por todo el centro.

Estatua al lado de la catedral, con forma de soporte del que colgaban varias marionetas de metal. Probablemente la fuente más chula que we have seen in a long time.
