State of Chiapas

Where to Go & What to Do

Surrounded by lush nature and unparalleled landscapes, Chiapas preserves the traditions of ancient cultures, as in the gastronomy or the murals, in the stories that parents tell their children and in the unique way of life of some communities.

The festivities in Chiapas are as diverse as its original peoples and as firm as its roots, still unshaken by the passage of time.

The cultural and natural wealth of Chiapas is as immense as the warmth of its people and the beauty of its territory, visit it and experience the greatness of the Mayan world.
