Tegucigalpa is the capital city of Honduras and is settled in a central valley surrounded by mountains. The city was founded in 1578 on the slopes of Mount Picacho as a gold- and silver- mining centre and is presently well known for its Spanish colonial architecture and the 18th-century Cathedral of St. Michael the Archangel with its baroque interior. Other famous attractions of Tegucigalpa include Naciones Unidas El Picacho Park, Parque Nacional La Tigra, Museo para la Identidad Nacional, Basilica de Suyapa, Parque Cerro Juana A. Lainez, Catedral de San Miguel, Iglesia Los Dolores, among others.
Sightseeing tours to La Tigra and El Picacho Park with waterfalls and a generous supply of tropical fauna in a forest mountain is one unforgettable tour for all visitors. Etched in the memories of those brave enough to try out new dishes is the creamy goodness of Tegucigalpa drinks and the fullness of their dishes taken during food and wine tours in Tegucigalpa. The beautiful natural environment of Nueva Armenia and the endless flow of the Yojoa lake explored during daytrips and excursions in Tegucigalpa is both fun and educating as a tour guide points out landmarks and significant spots. The bustling capital city offers an escape from the activities to the serene landscape of Comayagua with a visit to the El Chircal village that houses the oldest archaeological area in Honduras during cultural and historical tours. The mineral wealth of the mountain in San Juancito Minero does not reserve its wealth for nature alone but also for visitors who leave with the wealth of experience gained from the fascinating stories told during outdoor activities of the attempt, by both the Spaniards and the Tolupan people, to extract this mineral ore.
Tripindicator offers visitors affordable services that save them both money and time by taking them on tours to prime attractions of the city.
