Also see . . . Benito Juárez at Wikipedia. Benito Juárez (21 March 1806 – 18 July 1872) a Mexican liberal politician and lawyer who served as the 26th president of Mexico from 1858 until his death in office in 1872. He is most famous for confronting the French invasion of Mexico and for supporting reforms that modernized the country. It is unlikely that he visited Guatemala but that this bust is a symbol of Mexican-Guatemala friendship due to the nearby border crossing. (Submitted on March 17, 2023, by J.
