About Copán Archaeological Site

A UNESCO-listed Maya city just outside town, famous for its intricately carved stelae and altars and the Hieroglyphic Stairway, the longest known Maya inscription. Scarlet macaws fly around the site. Go early, consider hiring a guide at the entrance, and add the tunnels and the Sculpture Museum for extra fees.
