From the ruins of León Viejo, you can see the volcano Momotombo.
If you walk from the ruins to the lake of the nearby village; Puerto Momotombo, from where the bus leaves, you will get even better views.
Here dead trees stand in Lake Managua as silhouettes in front of the big and beautiful volcano.
Standing here at the lakeside, so close to the volcano, I couldn’t resist thinking about the horrible day where earthquakes and volcano eruptions from the same volcano in 1609 buried León Viejo. Leave a Comment
Directions: The ruins and Puerto Momotombo can be reached from managua to La Paz centro, then another bus to León Viejo. Walk one km to the ruins.
