San Antonio Village in Cayo District







The road to reach San Antonio Village is a long  one. However, don't not discourage you from going. On your way to said village, there is a small Mayan Temple/ Ruin. This temple looked newly founded due to its features. It is surrounded by tall, picturesque trees and a large Mayan head could be seen on the temple.
            Shortly after, you arrive at the San Antonio Village in Cayo to the Women’s Group. At the front of the location is a small green building was the gift shop. To the right of the gift shop is the sign that said “Welcome to San Antonio Women’s Co-op Gift Shop”.
            Directly behind the gift shop is a medium sized palapa that contains three long rectangle tables. To the left to the palapa is the women’s house, and to the left is the pottery building. Behind the house is another palapa which is the kitchen. Behind the first palapa way at the back is the bathroom.
        At the entrance of the kitchen there is a sink to the right for people to wash their hands before handling food. To the left of the entrance there is a medium sized rectangle table. At the far end of the right there is a fire-heart situated on top of a clay table about three feet high. On the far left there is another table with a fancy design of a jaguar head. 


      The pottery room has a couple chairs facing the left wall. This wall contains three doors. The first door has molds for the pottery. To the left of the chairs there is a sink to wash your hands after having dealt with the clay.
      Come to the San Antionio Women's Group situated in Cayo, Belize and learn how to make hand made corn tortillas and also learn how to do your own clay pottery.
