The village of Chichicastenango comes alive as Maya merchants and shoppers gather from throughout the highlands for the Thursday market… around the church. While here, they worship at the Catholic church, performing rituals that are a mix of Maya and Christian. After mass, they all just stand there on the steps of the church… as if waiting to be photographed. Chichicastenango video.
