PANAJACHEL

The town of Pana is the central hub of Lake Atitlan as it has the main road access. It is a small town that has a central tourist area comprising of the street Calle Santander running from the centre down to the lake shore, and the ‘Zona Viva’, where the majority of bars, clubs, banks, and restaurants are.

Panajachel was believed to be founded around same time as Sololá and Santiago Atitlan, in 1547. The name comes from the Cakchiquel (one of the Mayan languages used around the Lake) meaning ‘place of cane and doctors’ (but not the certified kind of doctor!). Another explanation is that it refers to the fertility and abundance in plant life here, thanks to the rich volcanic soil.

At the end of the 17th Century there was a local Cakchiquel population of 800, in 1936 it was 1,200, and now it is approximated at 18,000, although there is a large, foreign and tourist population too, which swells in number considerably at certain times of year. It was in the 1960s that it began to become a popular tourist destination and ‘hippie’ hangout, being knicknamed, ‘Gringotenango’!
