Tegulpigalpa is the capital city of Honduras with population of approximately 3 million. A noisy city, typical of all large Central American big cities. The is very little USA, North American influence here in terms of big box stores, food chains. It is near impossible to get US dollars here from a credit card, nothing much in term of shopping. The surrounding area is dappled with foothills nad there are some national parks nearby. Hotels vary dramatically in price. The mainland Honduras is quite dry and arrid for most of the year so its relatively void of wildlife except on top of the big foothills.
