Nim Po’t

This vast store has pretty much every type of Guatemalan handicraft one could be searching for. The museum-like display of regional apparel (trajes and huipiles) and textiles are amazing. If you only go to one store because you don't have much time or you don't like shopping, this is the one to check out. There is no haggling -- the prices are set.

This place had a ton of different crafts so you could really find pretty much any souvenir you want. The one downside I will say is that things were fairly pricey even by US standards, especially for any type of fabric or apparel. If you’re looking for a value deal I would probably look elsewhere.

Great selection but the prices have gone sky high since we started shopping there a few years ago. Went in for a recent visit but left without buying anything for the first time due to elevated prices. Doubtful that we will go back unless it's to pet the cute, friendly kitty that roams the store.

The place is pretty uninviting with all the prohibition signs and the security guard following you everywhere. The market has quality items though. Light should be improved.

They definitely sell items for a higher price but you’re not hassled at all when shopping vs the smaller, more local stores where there is a lot of pressure to buy something. For me, that makes the shopping experience more pleasant than feeling like you have to buy something.

That's an interesting gift store. It's huge. There are lots of interesting things that you ma consider as gifts for your friends. I didn't buy anything today but I had a lot of fun looking at many cute ideas.

Lots of places to buy local crafts and works in Antigua, but this deserves your time. Indoors. Wide selection. The back wall alone with the numerous masks is awesome. Don’t just take a photo, buy something. They also have a series of prints on a side wall that will brighten up any space. Come on in and enjoy.
