Managua Flights & Travel Overview
Managua, like Nicaragua, is a survivor of a brutal past that has left significant bruises. Natural disasters like earthquakes in 1931 and 1972, flooding from Hurricane Mitch in 1998 and damage from the 1978-1979 revolution have almost rendered this lakeside capital void of the colonial buildings and historic monuments that are scattered among the hideous concrete structures and overly congested streets of other Central America capitals. All that remains are low-rise, spread-out concrete structures which are perfect for a city near the intersection of three continental plates, but not perfect for a strolling tourist.
WARNING : Although Managua is one of Central America's safest capital cities, the Mercado Oriental is not safe: 60% of the country's crime occurs here.
