Valle de Angeles - Valley of Angels

A sleepy little town full of arts and crafts from all over Central America, and loads of gringos
I was pretty dissapointed that they didn't have more people in the back.

Its festivities are celebreted every year during 2 weeks around October 4th, Saint Francis of Assisi' day, in which the first week are religious festivities only.

Hi! I am from Honduras, and quest what I had only drove by Commayaqua every other weekend and I miss seeing the beautiful sites of it. It seems like you got to see pretty good sites that is wonderful. My fathers Maternal desendents are from that beautiful place, and I don't even know them as well. My dad use to say that Manuel Zelaya de president of Honduras is related to his mom Maria Dolores Castro Zelaya who pass away when I was about 5 years old in Azacualpa, Honduras C.A. Great pictures!!

There are two centers of the universe for me:


1) Parque Central in Valle de Angeles,

2) Pirate's Alley (next to St. Louis Cathedral on Jackson Square
in my beloved New Orleans).
