MEXICO - Chiapas
Tzotzil villages and churches
San Andres Larrainzar church
San Juan Chamula church
San Juan Chamula and San Andres Larrainzar are some of the several Tzotzil communities located in the highland towns outside San Cristobal. The Tzotzil form of Catholicism is a blend of pre-conquest Maya customs, Spanish Catholic traditions, and subsequent innovations. The visit of their churches is an incredible experience (no photos allowed).
