Copan

Cindy and I had a great trip recently to Copan on in the Honduran highlands. Copan is famous for its Mayan ruins and its traditional spanish colonial village with cobblestone streets.

This set of pictures showcases the small village and our favorite place to eat Nina Lola where the servers carry the food on their head and the pinchos (Honduran shish ka bob) are the biggest we have ever seen. The city is laid out with a main square and they have a market on the weekends which is really nice.

We stayed at the Marina Copan hotel and found it to be first class and a great option.

During our stay we spent time walking around the city, went for a horseback ride, saw the incredible Ruins, Coffee farms and hit the Bird park which was amazing. Definitely a great 3 or 4 night option but plan on a full day to get there as Copan is a 3 hour drive from San Pedro through mountain roads.
