We chose to go to a local market day in Solola rather than the more touristy one on Chichicastenango. Both are just a short drive from Lake Atitlan. What an incredible sight! We had heard how the different mayan villages had different patterns and colors on their clothes and we were able to really see this in Solola. Downside was that we were the only tourists and were followed constantly by several women. They could make money teaching people here in the states how to sell!!!
