Tegucigalpa

Tegucigalpa, commonly referred to as Tegus, is the capital of and largest city in Honduras. Situated in a valley, surrounded by mountains, the city, a 400 year-old mining center, has a depth that is there for those with time and nerve to find it. It has a plethora of interesting, if decaying, old colonial buildings, and many old stone streets winding intriguingly up steep hills to hidden parks, stone steps, and old houses.
