LEGENDS, MYTHS AND BELIEFS

We will also  visit the Historical Cemetery of Guadalupe, a place where the tombs of historically significant figures lie alongside impressive artistic sculptures erected by wealthy families of that era for their deceased. The cemetery is filled with symbolism and houses intriguing stories that make one ponder the concept of trascendency , both as individuals and within our society.

The cemetery conceals many other mysteries, being the oldest in the city. Oliverio Castañeda, Nicaragua's first notorious murderer, which inspired Sergio Ramírez, the recent winner of the Cervantes Prize in Spain.
