Introducing Comayagua
Comayagua, 84km northwest of Tegucigalpa, is the historic first capital of Honduras and was a religious and political center for over three centuries, until power shifted to Tegucigalpa in 1880. The town’s colonial past is evident in its several fine old iglesias, an impressive cathedral, colonial plazas and two interesting museums. A very Catholic city, it’s also considered the best place in Honduras for visitors to witness Easter celebrations.
