What do expats in Chichicastenango appreciate most about the local culture?

Answer this Question

We asked expats and digital nomads what they appreciate the most about the local culture in Chichicastenango. They wrote...

"Expats in Chichicastenango, appreciate the rich Mayan culture that is still very much alive in the local traditions, language, and clothing. They love the vibrant, bustling markets, particularly the famous Chichicastenango Market, where locals sell everything from food to textiles, offering a unique shopping experience. The strong sense of community and the warm, welcoming nature of the locals is also highly valued by expats. They are fascinated by the colorful religious festivals and processions that take place throughout the year, which blend Catholic and Mayan beliefs. The local cuisine, which is a mix of Mayan and Spanish influences, is another aspect of the culture that expats enjoy. Lastly, the stunning natural beauty of the surrounding highlands and the slower pace of life is a refreshing change for many expats," said a member in Chichicastenango, Guatemala.
