San Christabel de Las Casas

MEXICO | Friday, 16 May 2008 | Views [188]

San Cristabel has cobbled little streets and churches dating back to the 1500´s.  There are many indigenous people here and they often wear the traditional dress.  The women wear very similar clothes and have their hair in plaits very much like the indigenous women in South America (Peru and Bolivia).  They just wear different colours to the women in South America.  The main market here is busy and bustling and you can basically buy anything here.  I could have bought a live chicken if I wanted or a DVD player.
