The church is sober, with a large wooden door that only opens completely on the feast of San Juan. Everything is guarded by the "mayoles" or policemen, who carry a "chuck" - a thick white wool pad and a leather bag made of hard wood like iron. Visitors are prohibited from taking photographs. Access to the interior of the church is regulated and a fee must be paid to enter.

Tzotzil town "Place of Bats" where the sacred spaces are marked by the hills that surround the small valley and the complex formed by the San Lorenzo church, of colonial origin but remodeled at the beginning of the 20th century, and the Esquipulas and San Sebastián chapels.
