Copan combines the charm of a colonial town with cobblestone streets and friendly inhabitants, and the magnificence of the most important Archaeological Park of the country: The Ancient Mayan City of Copan and the Mayan Sculpture Museum. It is located in the jungles of northwestern Honduras, a three-hour drive from San Pedro Sula. In Copan, the Mayas reached their most refined sculpture, leaving the longest hieroglyphic text, and the most fascinating collection of stelares.
