Explore Iximché, one of the most important archaeological sites in the Guatemalan Highlands and the former capital of the Kaqchikel Maya during the Late Postclassic period. Once a powerful political and ceremonial center (12th–15th centuries), Iximché played a key role during the Spanish Conquest and is considered the first capital of Guatemala. Upon arrival, you will meet your local bilingual guide at the entrance of the site, where the guided visit begins. You will walk through the site’s four ceremonial plazas, surrounded by temples, structures reaching up to 10 meters high, and two Maya ball courts. Through clear explanations and storytelling, your guide will explain the social organization, rituals, and defensive strategies of the Kaqchikel people. The visit also includes time at the on-site museum (closed on Mondays), where sculptures and ceramics discovered during excavations provide additional insight into daily life and ceremonial practices.
