Tulumaje
Tulumaje is a small village situated along the Rio Motagua, the largest river of Guatemala. This village is characterized to be predominantly hot and humid, with few possibilities of droughts, because of the abundant sources of water as it is the Motagua river and Las vegas river, both surrounding the place. The area is largely forested, bringing to the region frequent rainy days.

San Esteban is the most important one, with a big affluence of sawmill factories, providing the people with good opportunities of employment; different other families dedicate themselves to the livestock, having great amounts of cattle, which they feed at their own lands near river Motagua or Las vegas. Those families as well own huge extensions of lands, on which they harvest lemon or other kinds of tropical fruits. Barrio El puente connects Barrio El lajal, and it is characterized to be right next to Puente Tulumaje, and the main entrance is often called Dona Chavelita by the people who get off the bus that run from El Progreso, Las Champas, or come from Morazan, Pasagua and Tulumajillo. Barrio El lajal is characterized to be a dry place, of rocky roads, and situated at a high hill with little forestation. Houses are made of adobe walls and tile roofs that provides a fresh environment. Barrio El campo is situated at the opposite side of the above mentioned neighborhoods. It is also a dry place, with different facilities of access through well paved roads.
