International spotlight shines on La Campa

Lenca pottery was a highlight for visiting journalists in October 2010 

In October 2010, journalists from several countries visited Gracias and La Campa as part of a familiarization tour offered by the Central America Travel Market 2010.

In a November 11th post on his blog the Latin American Traveler, John Mitchell, a leading Canadian photographer and journalist, shares his thoughts, impressions and stunning new photos of La Campa in "Gracias, Lempira, Honduras: Small Town with a Big Past and a Bright Future.  It's great to see the international media spotlight shine on La Campa. 

Also interesting to see photos of the Lenca pottery, restored cathedral and local La Campa residents such as Dona Desideria. 

Is La Campa the Most Peaceful Community in Latin America?

When you combine the magic of its remote location, the fresh mountain air, the community's deep spiritual connection to the land and a no-alcohol policy, La Campa just might be the most peaceful community in Latin America.

It's safe for solo travelers, women and all those who don't need a drink to have a good time.
