Om
Hurtige fakta: Dette hvide kapel står på et højtliggende sted over hovedtorvet og er et af byens vigtigste åndelige punkter. De lokale maya-samfund praktiserer her synkretiske ceremonier, som forbinder katolsk tro med præcolumbianske traditioner.
Højdepunkter: Trapperne op til kapellet er ofte dækket af blomster, lys og røg fra copal, som maya-shamaninder bruger ved ritualer. Indenfor finder du en Kristusstatue, som de troende kommer til med både bønner og taksigelser, ofte ledsaget af trommer og bønner på k'iche'-sproget.
Insidertips
- Wear comfortable footwear, the steps to the chapel are steep and slippery in the rain.
- The ideal photo spot is from the elevated platform in front of the chapel, from where you can see the entire square and the market.
- Avoid taking close-up photos without permission, local ceremonies are sacred to the community.
- Combine your visit with the market held on Thursdays and Sundays, when the atmosphere is most authentic.
