Go to Nicaragua
 Adventure Guide to Nicaragua by Erica RounsefelFrom the Adventure Guides series. Nicaragua is the largest Central American country, with the smallest population! Its natural beauty remains largely untouched. Central America's largest lake, Lago de Nicaragua, is here, along with the oldest Spanish city in the continental Americas, Granada. The entire country brims with wildlife, well-preserved colonial architecture, uncrowded beaches, picturesque lakes, and lush rainforests. More and more visitors are becoming aware of Nicaragua's opportunities to get away from it all by relaxing on Pacific beaches or secluded private islands and experiencing nature through boating, birdwatching or hiking in the cloud forests of the Mombacho volcano. The markets offer quality crafts, and it is often possible to meet the artisans themselves. Wildlife includes white-faced capuchin monkeys, spider monkeys and 700 bird species, including the quetzal, one of the most sought-after sights in Central America. This is a thorough guide to this magical country. Color maps and photos throughout. (2/08)
