Thursday and Sundays are market days in Chichicastenango. People from nearby areas bring their fruits, flowers and seeds, handicrafts, dresses and shawls to sell. Little by little the market surrounds St. Tomas Church like a labyrinth. At sundown, the rituals begin. Prayers are said while incense sends the messages up to their beloved gods.
