IGLESIA PUEBLO VIEJO, SAN SEBASTIAN & SAN JUAN ATITAN
First we will visit Iglesia Pueblo Viejo, where the tour continues with a visit at San Sebastian. This is a village situated 108 km from Huehuetenango on an altitude of 1668m. An important characteristic is that in the time of the conquest many inhabitants went to lower tropical grounds to work there in the agriculture in the north, east and west of the country. In this village they also have the tradition to choose a kind of priest that has to pray for the well being of the families, the harvest and the animals. Then we will visit San Juan Atitan which is a village situated at 34km from Huehuetenango. In this village they make and very special are the heads made from palms. The men as well the women in the village wear traditional clothes. This village is especially worth a visit on the market day, which is Thursday.

A pair of carved stones can be found there and the cave has 100m of depth. To enter the cave, you have to ask permission, because if not, it will bring you bad things.
