Often overshadowed by the fame of neighbouring countries - Panama and Costa Rica in the first place - Nicaragua is slowly establishing itself as an interesting destination that intrigues visitors with its traditions anchored in rural life and its pristine natural scenery. Without a doubt, the lakes, volcanoes and colonial past are the strengths of Nicaragua: Granada is a perfect blend of different architectural styles, from baroque to Moorish influences, all dominated by the inevitable colonial touch. The pastel colours of the houses on Calle La Calzada are a joy to behold, while the whiteness of the domes of Leon's Cathedral will leave you breathless. And for a total immersion in Nicaraguan nature, just visit Parque Nacional Volcán Mombacho and the very active Masaya Volcano before reaching the paradise of Islas del Maiz, among the Caribbean Sea and endless beaches.
