Constructed between 1904 and 1905, it features intricate details such as brick contours, lead railroad lines, and a unique water system that accurately represents the country's lakes and rivers. The site includes an exhibition hall showcasing the history of Guatemala in the 18th century and is home to the Sound Forest of Hormigo, which honors notable Guatemalan marimba composers with over 100 commemorative trees.
