Museo Comunitario Balaa Xtee Guech Gulal
Facing the Mercado de Artesanías on the central plaza is the Museo Comunitario Balaa Xtee Guech Gulal, with local archaeological finds and displays on local crafts and traditions (in English as well as Spanish and Zapotec). Here, with a day’s notice, you can organize a guided walk up Cerro de Picacho, a sacred hill just outside the village, for M$10 per person.

Templo de la Virgen de la Natividad
The handsome 17th-century Templo de la Virgen de la Natividad’s altar area and transept are adorned with colorful 18th-century frescoes. It was built atop a Zapotec ceremonial site, many of whose carved stones can be seen in the church walls; look especially in the inner patio.
