See

The church in San Juan Chamula is a must see. Here the ancient Mayan traditions are blended with the more modern ideas of Christianity. There are saints representing gods and the people go to church to be healed rather than to pray for salvation. Worship is a private family affair rather than a community responsibility. Please do not take photos in the church -- this is highly offensive to the people and could result in you losing your camera.

Do

Buy

There is a big market in front of the church -- you can buy locally made handicrafts of wool. They make purses, skirts, dolls, ect. The town itself is extremely poor and it would be helpful if you supported the community and purchased some of their handmade goods.
