Most people visiting Nicaragua are there for its beautiful, sun-kissed beaches, volcanic hikes, and untouched nature. Even if that’s the case with you, you’ll probably start your journey from one of its major cities, and these three are actually worth the visit.

Managua

Located on the shores of Lake Managua, the capital of Nicaragua is usually everyone’s starting point, so why not take some time to explore it? In addition to being the gateway for surrounding natural wonders, this city is worth visiting for its rich history and impressive architecture.

León

Nicaragua’s second-largest city is one of the best places to explore baroque and neoclassical architecture and some of the country’s best art museums. It’s also a perfect jumping-off point if you want to visit the nearby Cerro Negro and Momotombo volcanoes.

Granada

Granada isn’t one of Nicaragua’s largest or most populous cities, but that’s not stopping it from being one of its most visited attractions. This city is rich in its historical heritage, and it’s home to many colonial landmarks. This includes Granada Cathedral, known for its colorful exterior and beautiful views from the bell tower.

While the era of colonization left a lot of painful scars in Central America, what is undeniable is that a wealth of architectural treasures remain behind from this period of Spanish rule in the region. Still today, some of the cities and towns built hundreds of years ago during this time stand.

Check out these three beautiful colonial cities in Central America for a taste of a time long gone.

Granada, Nicaragua

On the shores of Lake Nicaragua sits Granada, a small city of just over 100,000 people that is often considered the country’s most beautiful municipality. The dramatic orange and yellow Granada Cathedral towers above colorful buildings in the city’s old town, showing off the city’s beauty.

Antigua, Guatemala

In the volcanic mountainous region of southern Guatemala stands Antigua, the country’s best-preserved colonial town. The 17th-century Santa Catalina archway, as well as the city’s numerous religious buildings, have all been preserved immaculately despite earthquakes and other natural disasters.

Leon, Nicaragua

Leon’s colonial area might not be as big as Antigua and Granada’s, but its centerpiece, the dramatic Assumption Cathedral, is worth the trip alone. Built in the late 1700s, this is one of the best still-standing examples of colonial baroque architecture.
