No trip to Chiapas would be complete without visiting San Juan Chamula, the home of the Tzotzil community in the Chiapas Highlands. This place is renowned for its religious syncretism, where pre-Hispanic traditions blend with Catholic influence to create a distinct and unparalleled culture.
One of the main attractions of San Juan Chamula is its church and atrium, located in the central square of the town. Here, you can witness religious ceremonies that are highly representative of Tzotzil culture, such as the use of candles, incense, and other elements in rituals and offerings.
Next, we'll visit Zinacantán, another Tzotzil town that is famous for its textile arts and traditional cuisine. Here, you'll learn about the tradition of weaving wool and cotton on waist looms, as well as the preparation of typical dishes such as mole and tamales.
Finally, we'll return to San Cristóbal de las Casas for a brief guided tour of the town. In summary, this tour offers a unique opportunity to experience the cultural and religious richness of Chiapas' indigenous communities and delve into their ancestral traditions and customs. Don't miss out on this extraordinary journey!
