Leon
Founded in 1610 Leon is, in our opinion, a true view of city life in Nicaragua. Housing the country’s first University, the famous Basilica de la Asuncion (the Cathedral of Leon) and the best food in Nicaragua you won’t truly experience Nicaragua until you experience Leon.
Leon’s architectural elements are both gothic and neoclassical and can be seen from street to street or in a single structure. The Cathedral of Leon, which houses the tomb of the famous Nicaraguense poet Ruben Dario, took on both eras of architecture during the 113 years it took to build.
When you combine the young, vibrant culture with walking tours of the incredible historical architecture with the amazing street food you get a true view of Nicaragua life.
