Blogger Doug Today we travelled to Chichicastenango to visit the largest market in Central America.
It was an amazing market with lots of locals from all around the surrounding villages carting the wears up to the market place the night before ready to start selling early.
It was interesting to see the variety in the fabrics the locals were selling. The varied in colour and embroidery depending on the village. We wanted to buy everything but just couldn´t afford and carry it all with us. We all voted no more markets as the number of times we said ¨No, gracios¨was ridiculous!!
