I have traveled all over the world visiting ruins and although this city and it's buildings were small they were still worth seeing. It is a nice park setting where you can sit down and have a picnic while enjoying the views.While we were there the Mayan Shamans were performing a traditional ceremony which was neat to see.

If you're in the region, you definitely need to see the Mayan ruins and learn about the people and the culture. It is so embedded in the Guatemalan people. The ruins has a ceremonial area that was designated to people who want to continue the mayan practice. we had a guide, Melvin, who is a volunteer and who was so incredibly knowledgeable. We learned a lot in a short period of time.

We got to stop here on our travel day. Never expected to get to see Mayan ruins. Scenery is very nice. Very clear and nice area. So glad that we stopped and spent some time here, even though it is not as famous.

We stopped here on the way to Laguna Lodge and found it to be a great stop about half way to the lake. Pedro our driver organised a guide who was very knowledgable on the area and as we were not going to see Tikal this was a perfect add-on for our Lake Atitlan stay.

Maybe not the best Mayan ruins around, but definately worth a visit. The sprawling grounds offer plenty of space for the youngsters to expend their energy. Next time we'll take a picnic lunch. Grounds close at 16:00.

We were lucky to have an expert in the family tell us all about the history of this place which is phenomenal. I would suggest getting someone who knows about this and please, respect the land.

IThe site is immaculate and very accessable. like many smaller sites it is still under excavation. The park is mystical and big enough to give the kids a place to run and play. -http://didreyfus.wordpress.com/?s=Iximche

We visited the IXIMCHE Pyramids in Tecpan while driving from Solola to Guatemala City. We spent about 2 hours walking the sites and learning about the Mayan culture. The Plazas were all built in similar fashions but varied by size according to the families prominence. We were fortunate to have a guide who spoke excellent English and was very knowledgeable about the ruins and the history and culture. It was fascinating to learn about Jom, a "soccer" type ball game on a closed field. We met some students from the University on a field trip and they were great to talk with about their experiences. We also visited the museum with artifacts and a model of the village. A very enjoyable afternoon.

Great place to stop for an hour or two either in its own right of on the way to Panajachel. As others have said, this is not in Panajachel but about half way between Antigua and Panajachel. We went on New Years day, so there were lots of locals at the site, maybe more on a regular say. The site is well maintained and as I wasn't able to make it to one if the larger sites, it was a great first time experience. Much better than Panajachel itself, but that's a different story.

This small site is nestled in the hills of the Highlands. The ruins are not well exposed (only the foundations remain), but you can see the lay-out and envision the city life. Very good markers with explanations in spanish/english. Guides are available on site and are very well versed on the site and personable. I suggest going if you have the time. Calculate 1 hour minimum from getting off CA-1 and return. 2 hours would be plenty.
