Plaza y Mercado Santo Tomas
Arrival to Chichicastenango’s Market. In the center of town is the local market where you can buy wood products, ceramics and even gifts that the Mayan priests offer on their prehispanic altars. You can also admire the Church of Santo Tomas which was built by Dominicans and Kichen in the year of 1540 on a Maya altar, which even today is used on the front steps of the church.
On the other side is Calvary Church, in the square you can see a high stick where they have done each year the presentation of the Palo Volador.
