My guidebook recommends a visit to the Centro de Desarollo de la Medicina Maya (Maya Medicine Development Centre). It's an atmosepheric place made up of a herb garden and four rooms showing how herbs, prayers and candles have helped cure Mayans of illnesses over the years. There is also a graphic video showing how traditional Mayan women give birth - on their knees embraced by their husbands.
