The following travel photographs were taken at the Chichicastenango Market in
Guatemala in the spring of 2008. They are of Mayan women with babies in
papooses, Guatemalan people selling fruits and vegetables, a drunk man laying in
the streets, indigenous women selling household supplies, men weighing grain,
and Guatemalan girls in dresses.

The market at Chichicastenango takes place every Thursday and Sunday 140 kilometers northwest of Guatemala City. The town is full of stucco white buildings, shops, and, on market days, the streets are full of vendors selling everything from lime to chicken parts to Mayan textiles and clothing.
