- YHaterOakville, Canada60 contributionsIt's an okay place for a short visit and the buildings on the square are somewhat interesting. There is also a memorial park to the Sandinista heroes on the west side. Parking is very easy and there is a big and free lot on the east side right beside the Palace of Culture.Written 1 February 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Accross from this attractions are tents that appeared to have some circus shows. Will try to see them too.Written 6 December 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Helps you get your bearings as you can see the old cathedral and the lake from the top. Costs one USD to walk up. Very clean park with everything well manicured and watered.Written 3 December 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- dod2015Los Angeles, CA228 contributionsUnique exterior architecture. I came here by mistake but enjoyed the site anyways. Quiet, unassuming with a dignified interior sanctuary. Make sure to tell your taxi to go to the church in Plaza de la Revolucion if you want to visit the Antigua Cathedral de Managua, which is a much more imposing structure.Written 23 March 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- JM SATegucigalpa, Honduras13 contributionsIncredible place very well located in the city. I went there every day during my visit to Managua. It is nice, well maintained, there is free wifi and it is very secure.

- Lynne SWinters, CA596 contributionsThere is precious little to do/see in Managua so this little historical display was a good outing. Being underground meant it was slightly cooler. A guide makes all the difference.Written 8 July 2016This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
