Parque Arqueológico Tazumal

Always something new to discover when I come back. I have been a total of 3 times to these Ruins and I love each time . Place is not to Big but still interesting. Always bring plenty of water and a Hat with a big rim because it’s very hot. Great for all ages .

Pleasant detour en route to santa ana/Cerro Verde. Reasonable entry prices (different for foreigners/locals). Quiet, shady, well kept grounds for walking around. Picnic area in the woods. Site well maintained. Has a small museum and restaurant. Could park a few blocks away and walk (area is not busy) or there is some parking immediately outside (a volunteer is overseeing this operation for tips)

It's a beautiful park. The staff is friendly and full of information about Tazumal. Parking is available outside the streets, and bathrooms are available inside the park. The weather was humid and hot. Bring sunscreen, insect repellant, and a picnic blanket to relax after walking around the pyramid.

Really cool archaeological site. Absolutely worth visiting. It's relatively small so it doesn't take very long. I think entrance was only $3 and it can be seen in about an hour.

Small but excellent site. We were told at the window you can buy tickets online. We had no waiting time however when we were exiting there was a long line up. Definitely recommend a visit

Pleasant visit, interesting site. Visited Casa Blanca site just over the main road to complete the picture. The lake in the middle of town is amazing.

Parque Arqueológico Tazumal is a beautiful park full of history!! Parking is available in front however be ready to leave a tip when you return or to be called over by vendors that are located along the strip of the park. I believed we paid $11 for entrances 2 locals, 2 for foreigners and 1 child. When you enter there are tours available but we didn’t ask how much, there are also photographers that will offer to capture a family photo for $15 but these are optionals. We walked around the park took photos and videos ourselves we used a tripod and the timer on our camera. We walked around to see views from all angels and towards the entrance there is a mini museum about the history of the park and there are exhibits of items that have been found within the park. If you appreciate history, art and culture I definitely recommend you visit. If you don’t have any interest in these things you will be disappointed!! When you leave the park there is a large selection of shops.

Pretty interesting if you’ve never been to ruins before. May be somewhat underwhelming otherwise. $5 is a fair price for entry. Gift shops conveniently line the street outside the site.
