Someday we will visit Copán Ruinas or begin to dream about going there! However, for now its not on our radar. Let us know in the comments if you think that should change!

Copán Ruinas

Copán was one of the great centers of Maya civilization over a thousand years ago. The beautiful ruins have some of the most impressive pre-Columbian art anywhere. Near the ruins is the village of nearly the same name - Copán Ruinas, with clean hotels and other facilities for visitors. Due to their proximity, both locations are covered by this article.
