Santiago Atitlán
Santiago Atitlán is a city in Guatemala on Lake Atitlán near Panajachel. It's famous as the largest indigenous population of Tz'utujil Mayans. It's much less touristy than Pana or San Pedro, and a good place to see local people going about their normal lives.| Tap on a place to explore it |
