About
San Pedro La Laguna:
The town of San Pedro
la Laguna is located on a steep hillside just off to the side of the
base of Volcán San Pedro, one of three 10,000-foot-high volcanoes that
line the south side of the lake. The center of town, with its churches,
market, bank, small concrete-block or adobe houses roofed with
corrugated steel sheets, cobblestone streets, narrow earthen alleyways
and stone stairways, sits on a more level spot where the hillside
pauses in its climb. Most of the women of the area and many of the
older men still wear the traditional hand-woven indigenous clothing of
the highland Maya. San Pedro offers the opportunity to experience the
traditional culture of a highland town in a rich natural setting.
