Plaza Morazán

At the center of the city is the Plaza Morazán, often called Parque Central by locals – this is Tegucigalpa's hub. A statue of former president Francisco Morazán on horseback sits at its center. An elaborate baroque cathedral dating from the 18th century overlooks the square: step inside and you'll find an intricate altar of gold and silver.
