Bookmark & shareA hustle and bustle that committed city-goers will appreciate.
Nestled into a bowl-shaped valley nearly 1000m (3280ft) above sea level, Honduras' capital isn't the most beautiful city in the world, but it has a way of growing on you nonetheless. Tegucigalpa has some excellent colonial churches, a handful of worthwhile museums and a variety of restaurants.
