Village girls stand in the doorstep to their house. Wonder upon their faces, beauty in their eyes; they speak a local native language that can only be learned when growing up in this mystical town.

Village girls stand in the doorstep to their house. Wonder upon their faces, beauty in their eyes; they speak a local native language that can only be learned when growing up in this mystical town.

Tucked in the Mexican highlands are two towns so magical that they have been able to stop time.
The road to San Cristobal de las Casas takes you through mist filled valleys and canyons, oftentimes a life risking adventure. The rewards upon arrival are plenty, like those of traveling through time.

Set in their ways, traditions guide their path. The people of these towns carry as much wonder about them as their way of life and traditions. Taking a peak at their life is like looking through a mirror into another time.
