Tecpan: The last Stronghold

Known as the “first capital of Guatemala,” Tecpán blends colonial history with deep Kaqchikel roots. Surrounded by pine-covered highlands and cool mountain air, it’s the gateway to the sacred ruins of Iximché, once a powerful Maya city. Today, Tecpán offers a peaceful escape with traditional cuisine, artisan crafts, and panoramic views of the Sierra Madre. It’s a place where history lives, nature breathes, and culture welcomes you with open arms.
