Founded in 1524, Granada is the oldest city in Central America. The city keeps its old colonial architecture as treasures. It is located 27 miles (45 km) from Managua on the north shore of Lake Nicaragua. The main highway, Managua-Granada, is a scenic route as are the majority of Nicaraguan roads. Once in this colonial city, you have so many different attractions that overnight at Granada is a must.

| ESSENCE OF THE AREA |
| This is a colonial jewel. The oldest colonial city on the continent. There is much to love about Granada and I would recommend that you use it as your gateway to the Isletas and canopy tour in the Mombacho cloud forest. From Granada, you can also visit easily Masaya, Leon and Ometepe and Rio San Juan. Granada has richly detailed colonial buildings that make the city an architecturally interesting town with a few nice hotels, great restaurants and cafes, friendly people, horse-drawn carriages and, lake breezes.
