Comayagua is a town in Honduras, some 80 km northwest of Tegucigalpa on the highway to San Pedro Sula. The town is noted for its wealth of Spanish Colonial architecture. The central square has a cathedral with the oldest clock in the Americas.
In recent years; Comayagua has became one of Honduras’ most important tourists’ attractions. Due to the Cooperation Tecnica Española and the Honduran Institute of Anthropology and History, both of which; have compromised in maintaining the city’s historical sites.
In the downtown is located; the Central Plaza. From that strategic point one can appreciate: the cathedral of Comayagua, and city Hall.
Surrounded by beautiful gardens, the Central Plaza serves as point of reference of the city. In it, the residents gather to celebrate the local holidays, concerts of marimbas, among other activities.
Right in front of the plaza is located; city Hall, which has been reconstructed a couple of times. The building is of neoclassic style and was built during the century XVI.
From the Central plaza we can also appreciate the city’s main attraction: The Cathedral of Comayagua. This church, is one of the biggest and most beautiful ones, built during the colonial era in Honduras. It was inaugurated on December 8, 1711.
