    Actun Tunichil Muknal MISSCHIEN De grotten van Actun Tunichil Muknal zijn onderdeel van de Maya cultuur in Belize. De Actun Tunichil Muknal grotten staan ook wel bekend als ‘Xibalba’. Een wandeling door deze grot van Belize kan best een beetje angstaanjagend zijn. Er is bijvoorbeeld een ruimte waarin het skelet van een jong persoon te zien is. Sommige ruimtes werden gebruikt voor decoraties en andere weer om offers te brengen. De Actun Tunichil Muknal grotten zijn gelegen in het Tapir Mountain Nature Reserve park op ongeveer drie kwartier rijden van San Ignacio. http://actuntunichilmuknal.com

  37. Point of interest after 2,707.4 km

    In a region freckled with remote mountain towns, Jalapa is one where the emerald hills are so close you can see their dips and grooves, their texture and shadows. While the town itself is not likely to win any beauty contests, the surrounding countryside boasts such dramatic natural beauty and so many adventure opportunities that the utter lack of tourism here is difficult to fathom.

  39. Point of interest after 2,707.4 km

    If you love coffee, mountains and urbanity, then have your cake and eat it in Matagalpa, a town where, for decades, an ever-increasing number of Liberal coffee patriarchs and subsistence Sandinista farmers have rubbed shoulders during city festivals and at market. Growth has sent Matagalpa sprawling into the foothills, up crumbling streets lined with shacks and onto graded plateaus laid out in tony subdivisions. Just glance skyward from nearly every city street and you’ll see pristine boulder-strewn peaks. When you’ve sipped your last cup of city, head for the hills, where you can hike through primary forest to gushing waterfalls, pick coffee, explore mineshafts and listen to ranchero troubadours jam under a harvest moon. If you're looking for a base from which to explore the best the region has to offer or just want to hang around in an accessible, authentic city, it's hard to beat Matagalpa.

    Sunken into a boulder-strewn valley sprinkled with Ocote pines and wildflowers and ringed with gorgeous Segovias, Ocotal is the commercial center of the mythic Segovias. These mountains once baited gold-hungry pirates up the Río Coco from the Caribbean Sea. Then, in 1927, Sandino and his ‘Crazy Little Army’ seized control of Ocotal from federal forces for his first big victory. This action won him some extra attention from the US White House, who soon made humble Ocotal the first city in history to be bombed by fighter planes. Today, Ocotal is just a peaceful market town that serves farmers and families who live in the dozens of surrounding pueblos.

    Only 12km from Matagalpa, the small town of San Ramón feels a world away, with small-town pleasantries and a relaxed vibe. But the real reason to come here is to get an authentic taste for rural life among the hardworking farmers in the surrounding hills. Unfortunately, like many areas in Northern Nicaragua, San Ramón's coffee crops were hit hard by the outbreak of coffee rust disease – some local farmers lost 60% to 80% of their crops. But at the time of research new varieties had been planted and farmers were hopeful of a rapid return to full production.

  43. Point of interest after 2,708.6 km

    Hidden in a cat’s eye of a valley, Jinotega, the 'City of Mists,' is enclosed on all sides by mountains dappled in cloud forests, crowned with granite ridges and pocked with deep gorges. While coffee tourism percolates in Matagalpa, Jinotega, which brims with adventure and promise, still sees far more foreign-aid workers than tourists. So walk these cobbled streets, visit nearby Lago de Apanás and hike into the misty mountains, where you can harvest coffee with locals and stroll through primary forest. Just make sure to get to Cerro La Cruz on a clear day to glimpse the cat’s eye in all her jade glory. And that City of Mists moniker is no joke. The average temperature is just 20°C (68°F) and the town can get 2600mm of rain annually. Bring rain gear and a fleece for the cool evenings.

  44. Point of interest after 2,709.1 km

    Blessed with a wonderful setting, Juigalpa is nestled on a high plateau peering into a golden valley quilted with rangeland carved by a crystalline river, and enclosed on all sides by the looming Serranía Amerrisque, the sheer granite faces and layered peaks which are ripe for contemplation and adventure. To the west is a series of smaller hills and dry valleys that crumble into marsh, which melts into Lago de Nicaragua. The town itself, sprinkled with well-preserved colonial buildings and peopled by ranchers, rambles along both sides of the Managua Hwy. Apart from a fascinating archaeological museum, there are not a lot of attractions here and the pulse of tourism is quite faint, which makes Juigalpa a particularly authentic destination.

  45. Point of interest after 2,709.1 km

    ‘The City with Two Floors’ was once two separate ranching communities separated by a steep 400m slope. They’ve grown together from the hill and valley, and now this ranchero market town, a couple of hours' drive from Managua, is a bustling agricultural hub. Being off the main highway, Boaco receives few visitors, but its good hotels and restaurants make it a decent overnight stop for those looking to explore the region's petroglyph-studded mountain hinterland.

  46. Point of interest after 2,710.3 km

    A Sandinista stronghold, a university town, a market center for the thousands of farmers that populate its surrounding hills: Estelí has a multifaceted soul. On weekdays you can wake up with sunrise yoga before Spanish class; on Saturday you can mingle with farmers at the massive produce market, then see them again at midnight, dancing like mad in a ranchero bar. And we haven’t even mentioned the world-class cigars or the zeal with which a city with socialist roots has taken to slot machines. You don’t have to be a Che Guevara devotee to dig this town. Set on the Pan-American Hwy close to the Honduran border, Estelí was a strategic gateway that saw heavy fighting and helped turn the revolution and, later, the Contra War. It's no surprise then, that Estelí has remained one of the Sandinistas’ strongest support bases. Read more: http://www.lonelyplanet.com/nicaragua/northern-nicaragua/esteli/introduction#ixzz4CrFjtzwk

  47. Point of interest after 2,844.4 km

    Diriamba is considered the birthplace of coffee production in Nicaragua; it was already a bustling settlement when the Spanish arrived. Today, it has a pleasant central plaza and interesting European-style architecture that dates back to the coffee boom in the late 19th and early 20th centuries

  48. Point of interest after 2,844.4 km

    Granada drips with photogenic elegance, a picture postcard at every turn. It’s no wonder many travelers use the city as a base, spending at least a day bopping along cobblestone roads from church to church in the city center, then venturing out into the countryside for trips to nearby attractions. Just out of town, half-day adventures take you to an evocative archipelago waterworld at Las Isletas and fun beaches at the Peninsula de Asese. Volcán Mombacho has walking trails and a butterfly sanctuary, not to mention a few hot springs dotted around its foothills. The Laguna de Apoyo is another must-see: its clear turquoise waters and laid-back waterfront lodges offer a splendid natural respite. Culturally curious travelers might consider a trip to community-tourism operations in nearby villages such as Nicaragua Libre, or out to Parque Nacional Archipiélago Zapatera, home to one of the most impressive collections of petroglyphs and statues in the country.

  49. Point of interest after 2,844.4 km

    Nicaragua's meseta central (central plateau) offers a picturesque patchwork of lagoons, steamy volcanic peaks and sleepy colonial villages. Not many people stay here for more than a short day-trip from nearby Granada, leaving plenty of room for exploration and singular encounters with the region's remarkable natural, cultural and artistic imprint. While trawling Masaya’s well-stocked artisan market is obligatory, real fans of the craftsmanship on display should get out to the Pueblos Blancos, where each town or village has its own specialty, from decorative pottery to handcrafted wooden furniture. Towering over all of this is mighty Volcán Masaya, where hiking trails take you to lava-filled craters and bat-infested caves, and parakeets nest in the crater walls. Sloping down from the meseta are the Carazo towns – pleasant stopovers on the way to a wild and remote stretch of coast.

    Rivas has its fans – people say it’s authentic and lively, with some wonderful buildings downtown. Maybe. But with the beaches, the lake and Isla de Ometepe beckoning, few travelers pause here long enough to find out. Rivas’ strategic position on the only sliver of land between the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans made it an important spot back in the colonial days. Now, with all the development on the southwestern beaches and Ometepe, it is once again an important trading and transport hub.

  52. Point of interest after 2,844.4 km

    Just 15 minutes from the bustle of Rivas are the beaches of San Jorge, lined with inexpensive seafood restaurants and casual bars – not to mention the country’s best views of Isla de Ometepe. It gets packed during Semana Santa, and on sunny summer weekends, with revelers from all over the region. International tourists, however, tend to just roll through en route to the island, stopping at the ferry terminal just long enough to wonder if those delicious breezes might be worth enjoying a moment more.

  53. Point of interest after 2,844.4 km

    Just 19km from Managua, Ticuantepe is a refreshing escape from the sweltering city, with temperatures ranging from 22°C to 28°C (71°F to 82°F). It’s on the western rim of the Complejo Ventarrón Volcanic (Ventarrón Volcanic Complex), across from Nindirí and Masaya. Occupied for at least 2500 years by the Matagalpa nation, Ticuantepe is today the service center for an enormous and productive agricultural region, colloquially known as the Valle de las Piñas (Valley of Pineapples). Read more: http://www.lonelyplanet.com/nicaragua/ticuantepe/introduction#ixzz4CreFHpwC

  54. Point of interest after 2,844.4 km

    At the crossroads of Los Pueblos Blancos, Catarina is known for its spectacular mirador (viewpoint) over Lago de Nicaragua and Laguna de Apoyo, and for its viveros (nurseries) that supply ornamental plants for households across Nicaragua. Diriomo may be the regional capital of witchcraft, but there's a similar tradition here – along with San Juan de Oriente, Catarina is locally known as a 'bewitched village.' It’s easy to visit Catarina, as almost any regional tour from Masaya or Granada includes a quick stop at the lookout over the Laguna de Apoyo. Read more: http://www.lonelyplanet.com/nicaragua/catarina/introduction#ixzz4Crg3nJA8

  55. Point of interest after 2,844.4 km

    Photogenic and fabulous, this growing colonial town has a wonderfully well-kept downtown, great regional food, better views of the volcano than Masaya and a marvelous guesthouse in the countryside, too. There’s not a whole lot to do, although Masatepe’s old train station has been reincarnated as one of the better artisan markets in the country. Towering over Masatepe’s attractive central plaza, Iglesia San Juan Bautista is home to El Cristo Negro de La Santísima Trinidad, whose feast days mean a month of parties between mid-May and mid-June, and features nationally famous folkloric dances like La Nueva Milpa, Racimo de Sacuanjoche and Masatepetl. The sweeping adobe makes a fine colonial centerpiece, but it’s the views from its gates, of fuming Volcán Masaya, that add depth to your prayers.

  56. Point of interest after 2,844.4 km

    Historically separated from its eternal rival by the Río Grande de Carazo (which is, predictably, too polluted for swimming, but worth a wander if you’re here), proud Jinotepe is the capital of Carazo. It's famous in Nicaragua for its neoclassical architecture and its locally produced ice cream

  57. Point of interest after 2,844.4 km

    Only 3km north of Masaya, the much more adorable town of Nindirí may have been even more important than Monimbó during the Chorotega era – at least if you're judging by the wealth of archaeological treasures that have been found here. Pre-Columbian artifacts, from urns to masks, tell the story of an ancient indigenous culture that once lived here: check them out at the tiny Museo Arqueológico Tendirí. If the museum is closed, check out the 1529 Catholic church, which has been left in adobe simplicity by subsequent renovations. It’s home to Cristo del Volcán, credited with stopping a lava flow from destroying the town during the 1772 eruption that opened the Santiago crater.

    San Marcos is known for a few things: it sits on the site of what’s thought to be the oldest human settlement in Nicaragua, and it's the hometown of Anastasio Somoza García, the nation's original dictator. Today, it has a pronounced and festive student presence thanks to Keiser University – Latin American Campus. Previously known as Ave Maria University, the school was taken over as a branch campus of Florida's Keiser University in 2013. Today, it's the only US university in Central America that offers four-year degrees in fields such as biology, international relations, and politics. San Marcos’ fiestas patronales (April 24 to 25) are some of the most impressive in the country. Read more: http://www.lonelyplanet.com/nicaragua/san-marcos/introduction#ixzz4CrhSRj3h

  59. Point of interest after 2,855.6 km

    Intensely political, buzzing with energy and, at times, drop-dead gorgeous (in a crumbling, colonial kind of way), León is what Managua should be – a city of awe-inspiring churches, fabulous art collections, stunning streetscapes, cosmopolitan eateries, fiery intellectualism, and all-week, walk-everywhere, happening nightlife. Many people fall in love with Granada, but most of them leave their heart in León

  60. Point of interest after 2,855.6 km

    Sultry Chinandega’s never going to end up on anyone’s Top 10 list. It isn't that the town’s ugly (it’s okay) or that there’s nothing to do (there’s some stuff) – it’s because Chinandega is the gateway to some of the most breathtaking spots in the entire northwest. And by the time you get to the region's beaches and natural reserves, you're likely to forget about this little workaday town

  61. Point of interest after 2,855.6 km

    At this low-key beach village, most tourists are day-trippers from the meseta towns. Passing through the big, concrete archway means you’ve entered the Centro Turistico La Boquita, with beach-friendly services and places to buy food and drinks. La Boquita is more of a swimming than a surfing beach, but if swells are big, waves can get a nice peak; some restaurants rent boards.

    De hoofdstad San Salvador San Salvador is de hoofdstad van El Salvador waar meer dan 2 miljoen mensen wonen: een derde van de totale bevolking. Hoewel de stad nog steeds bekend staat als gewelddadig is het zeer de moeite waard vanwege de mooi bewaard gebleven architectuur zoals de kathedraal, het nationaal theater en het nationaal paleis. Bezoek de parken en Centro alleen overdag, en neem taxi's in het donker. Het gebied van Soyopango (ten oosten van de stad) moet worden vermeden.
