Flamingo Cultural Center

Due to the pandemic, we were forced to temporarily close the center in March 2020. We reopened on April 12, 2021, and renamed the center to the Garifuna Cultural Center, you can find new reviews on that page.

Flamingo Cultural Center Roatan Delightful place We were driving around the island and had heard to stop in to Punta Gorda for history about the Garifuna people. The Flamingo Cultural Center was a great stop! Audrey took time to talk with us and answer our questions and show us a video too. Take the time to pop in!

Museo para la Identidad Nacional

Reviewed By sylviamegret - Alexandria, United States

This wonderful museum in a beautiful historic building in the heart of Tegucigalpa is a must see for anyone visiting. The building alone is worth the visit, but be certain to spend some time in the inviting and informative expositions. And definitely stop by the gift shop on the way out... wonderful finds.

Museum of Anthropology and History of San Pedro Sula

Reviewed By ilZio - San Pedro Sula, Honduras

The museum is located a block from el Parque Central and the Cathedral. It's unimpressive from the outside, but great on the inside. It has a lot of artifacts and items on display that show the history of the Sula Valley and San Pedro Sula. The bottom floor is particularly interesting for kids as it has recreation of older homes and it portrays the local way of life. They have sheets with english explanations throughout the museum. It's very well done and would recommend.

Sculpture Museum

Reviewed By Trek-Always - Alpharetta, United States

This is a great collection to see before or after the main ruins. It may be more meaningful to see the ruins first. Nice collection. Good English signage. You need 1-1.5 hours to see it all. Highly recommend. If this review is helpful then please indicate so below.

Fortaleza San Fernando

Reviewed By JohnD257 - La Ceiba, Honduras

The fortress is in great shape, and you can roam throughout most of it, letting your imagination fly. This is the most significant colonial military building in all of Central America! A nice museum next door will help you understand the history of Omoa from colonial times to present. This is a MUST visit site if you are in the area! Well worth a day trip from San Pedro Sula!
