Market Tour To Chichicastenango

Spend your day exploring the ins-and-outs of Chichicastenango's celebrated market. Artisans from the region gather in this small city to sell their wares, including handicrafts like pottery, jewelry, baskets and masks, as well as fruits, veggies, spices, and household goods. The market is an interesting mix of Guatemalan culture and unabashed tourism.

While here you can watch indigenous Mayans pray and swing incense holders on the steps of the Santo Tomás Church. You can also visit the Rossbach Museum, which has a collection of jade objects and incense burners, and the Pascual Abaj Mayan shrine.
