Quezaltenango Guatemala --- 
Quetzaltenango is one of the Departments or regional governments of Guatemala located in the SW portion of the country.  Quetzaltenango is also Guatemala's second largest city. Locally the city is often refered to as "Xela" a shortening of the original Mayan name for the area.  Thus if you are looking for traditional clothing from "Quetzaltenango" you need to first figure out if you mean the City or one of the villages or pueblos in the Department of Quezaltenango.  Both Quiche and Mam Mayans live in Quezaltenango.
