Today in Guate, we try some 'Comida Tipica' (typical local food). The Mayan population know it as Xelaju. On a recent weekend trip here in Guatemala we visited Quetzaltenango and Chichicastenango. About a 30 minute drive from the center of Quetzaltenango, is Iglesia de San Andrés Xecul.
From San Andres Xecul we returned to Quetzaltenango. Here we saw the Minerva temple. In the background you can clearly see one of the many volcanoes of Guatemala. Today, after showing you around Quetzaltenango, we will take a local bus to Chichicastenango, where we will shop the LARGEST market in Central America. This market comes alive on Thursdays and Sundays, and thankfully, we will be exploring on a Sunday. We will learn a lot about the traditional clothing, we will eat local food, and we will even witness some Mayan rituals.
For the first time in our travels we are in Central America. We are now in the heart of the Maya World. Guatemala is a country that promotes peace, architecture and culture. Today in Quetzaltenango (Xela) and Chichicastenango (Chichi) we will go shopping in the markets, eat some food, and explore.

That pretty yellow church was a lovely way to open the video - loved the decoration and all the poses! Hard to beat that breakfast view, food looked great too! It's really no fun getting motion sickness, I can remember having problems on a fast ferry to the Italian island of Capri way back in 2014 - horrible experience. My heart goes out to you! Loved the market... colourful, great atmosphere and some decent deals! I'm glad you bought the blouse Katy, definitely suited you and the people on the stall seemed really genuine - very helpful and proud of their product. You started with a vivid church and ended with a whole yard of ultra colourful mausoleums - great find, that place looked awesome.

We had to take a taxi to get out to the yellow church, but we didn't want to miss it! We tried to fly the drone, but it wouldn't fly in this area for some reason. But still a pretty good view. Yea, now we don't take any chances and always take the motion sickness medicine. Thanks about the blouse! We have never seen a cemetery like it. Thanks Matt!

That yellow church was truly magical! Agreed that there is not a much better way to start the day than with a great breakfast and view! Go Bolts! Jesus is King! It was a lot of fun to eat in the market. We loved the items they sold. Thanks!! ❤️ ❤️

Thanks for the tour! Great job documenting the chicken bus chaos and the food looks great! I've never seen a blue tortilla like that. Hopefully I can visit those spots too. See you in Guatemala! 🙂

@WITYTRAVELS 2 года назад

Thanks for watching! Yea, someone told us they actually call it a 'black tortilla.' Looks blue to us! See ya soon!

@bramianp 2 года назад

The name of that cheese is "Queso fresco", and actually what you called "blue tortillas", for us are "black tortillas", i hope you're having a good time in Guatemala, saludos

@WITYTRAVELS 2 года назад

Thank you for letting us know the name of the cheese. It is very tasty. Good to know on the tortilla. We are having a great time! ❤️ 🇬🇹

Breakfast with a view for sure. Looks delicious. The theatre looked a stunning building. Loved that cafe museo Luna, a real chill place. The buses are really cool. The market was vast! No sure about the blue tortillas though! Good choice on your top Katy, it looks lovely. Loved those Mayan ceremonies, and that cemetery was amazing. Great video guys 🍻

@WITYTRAVELS Год назад

We wanted to fly our drone to get an even better view from breakfast, but it wouldn't fly for some reason. We should have gotten a full theatre tour for you. Sorry! A local told us they call the blue tortillas 'black tortillas' so I don't know what's going on. Thanks for the compliment on the top. The clothing here is beautiful. The cemetery was very colorful. CHEERS! 🍻

The roads are like JA then. But it's sooo beautiful. 🥰 I've always wanted to travel so south America countries but I need to speak Spanish. All my friends who have been said it's crucial. Anyways back to the video. 😊

@WITYTRAVELS 2 года назад

Guate is very beautiful. We're in Central America, but speaking Spanish does make it easier to get around. Thanks for the comment!

@relaxingsoundsmusic2462 Год назад

Guatemala is not in south América, Guatemala is in Centralamerica. You don't realy need to speak spanish in Guatemala, too much people speaks English and other languages. Visit Guatemala is realy wonderfull

En uno de lo pueblitos de Xela, en Salcajá pueden encontrar Paches de papa y loroco, es una flor local. También en la capital encuentran Pacbes de papa y de flor de hizote, también flor local. Disfruten mucho de Guate

@WITYTRAVELS 2 года назад

¡Gracias por la recomendación!

@bondedteam626 2 года назад

What you can do is buy the paches, take the meat out from the center and put some cheese instead. A stray dog would be very apreciative of eating some chicken. The rest of the pache doesnt have any meat neither any chicken broth. Next time guys.

@WITYTRAVELS 2 года назад

Very wise strategy! Like you said, next time!

Funny fact we don't call them blue tortillas but actually black tortillas reason why the lady hesitated when you asked for them.

@WITYTRAVELS Год назад

Thanks for the info!

@bondedteam626 2 года назад

On the mountain sickness, you can get some pills at a convenient store or pharmacy, you dont need prescriptions to buy medicine in Guate. Just ask for "Pastillas para el mareo", buy as many as you need, problem solved. Les falta barrio muchachos, but yall arw being very intrepid and brave, congrats.

Some of this girls in chichi might not know spanish, or it is very limited.

Oh ok. The main lady of the shop spoke great English and Spanish!

@bondedteam626 2 года назад

@@WITYTRAVELS Once they avoid you, that is a sign they dont understand and dont know what to say, unless they speak to you in kiché. Many ot these people come down from the little towns up in the mountains, to work at the market, they might be employees at a tortilleria or restaurant at the market.
