Shopping - Guatemala is famous for its textiles. In the city you should be able to find textiles from all over the country. If you are particularly interested in Guatemala or the Maya, you might find books (in Spanish) here that you can't easily get anywhere else. For books in English you'd most likely get better prices at an online bookstore like Amazon. Shopping at the Central Market, between 8 and 6 Calle/8 and 9 Avenida, Zona 1.
