At the “Dos Palmas” (Two Palms) community, visitors can immerse themselves in this intriguing world and engage in select local traditions, such as storytelling, Maya purification rituals, and the renowned Temazcal, the sacred Maya steam bath.
In ancient Mesoamerica, the Temazcal was an integral part of healing ceremonies, believed to cleanse the body after physical exertion, like battles or ceremonial ball games. It was also used for treating the sick, enhancing health, and assisting women during childbirth. Today, it remains a vital practice in the indigenous cultures of Mexico and Central America, which were once part of the ancient Mesoamerican region, for both spiritual and health purposes.
