This is a must in Tegucigalpa because is one of those emblematic places in the city. Is a very well elaborated and historic.

Visit the Basilica of the Virgin of Suyapa in the daytime. Every Latin American country has a place of pilgrimage, usually in honor of the Virgin Mary that appeared there. Honduras is no exception. The small village of Suyapa used to be outside of Tegucigalpa. Now it feels like an extension of the capital. On your way, you will pass the National Autonomous University of Honduras. A replica of the tiny Virgin of Suyapa is displayed in a beautiful crystal case. After you see her, look at the restored Basilica and its paintings. You may wish to light a candle in the special area set aside for that purpose. Also, the view from the Basilica towards Tegucigalpa is lovely. Then, go to the old church just down the road a bit and behind the Basilica to see the actual, tiny Virgin of Suyapa. She is usually there. This church is much smaller and darker. Let your eyes adjust to the light to appreciate it. Both the Basilica and the small church, originally erected in honor of the Virgin of Suyapa, inspire prayer and/or quiet contemplation.
