Vibrant Market & Shaman Ritual in Chichicastenango, Guatemala

reelscaper
What's made this once obscure market more popular for adventurists is the preserved rituals of indigenous Mayan religion mixed with the colorful commerce of the market vendors. it's a fascinating blend of modern Catholicism & local custom seen practiced every Sunday & Thursday when traders converge from all over the country to sell their wares. A definite must see if you're visiting nearby Lake Atitlan or Antigua. Chichi is approximately 87 miles northwest of Guatemala City.
