The 10 Best Things to Do in León, Nicaragua in 2025

"The ruins of León Viejo date back to the 16th century and are one of Nicaragua's two UNESCO World Heritage listings; discovered in 1967 with excavations beginning in 1968, the site is one of the oldest Spanish colonial settlements in the Americas and even if you're not a history buff like me it's worth a visit." - Matthew Kepnes
