Cementery

For Mayans, death is a trascending matter, and in the Chichicastenango cementery spiritual guides have found an energy spot allowing contact with ancesters, gods,dieties and spiritual grandparents.  Ceremonies are ongoing with Shamans coming from every part of Guatemala to celebrate this spiritual and physical union. The many colored tombstones and adornments make it a colorful as well as spiritual place to visit.
