Famed for it's Sunday markets, Chichicastenango or "Chichi" for short (thank God) is a quick ride up the Carretera Interamericana from Antigua. The Mayans from the local villages descend en-masse from the hills to pedal their wares. Much like San Cristobal, everything from Machettes to Mops and Chickens to Courgettes is for sale. Ever colourful, the Mayans wear their traditional dress and pop into the local church for a spot of benediction between matters more materialistic.
