Copan

Located in a remote valley in western Honduras, the Mayan ruins of Copan represent one of the most important examples of this civilization’s Classic Period.  Since its discovery in 1839, Copan has been carefully investigated by scholars, archaeologists and Mayanists from around the world. 

   
Copan is famous for The Great Plaza, The Ball Court and the Hieroglyphic Stairway.  Near the ruins is the charming colonial town of San Jose de Copan Ruinas, home to the Copan Museum.  We recommend a guided day tour or a 1 night/2 day tour from San Pedro Sula.
