The town center hosts one of Central America’s largest open-air markets, specializing in hand-woven textiles and regional crafts. Architectural landmarks like the Arco Gucumatz and the neoclassical Teatro Municipal highlight the town's historical development alongside traditional Highland Guatemalan cuisine.
