Picture Honduras


nacimiento - nativity scene

All over the city there are either miniature or life-size nativity scenes. Sometimes they're simply the 'manger scenes' we're familiar with. Other times they depict places or events in history. This one, in a shopping center near our language school, is a miniature portrayal of various places described in the Bible.

  1. It looks beautiful. Are they a very artistic culture?

  2. We see more artisans than artists here...but I'm hoping to visit a few museums soon, because I've heard that in the past there have been some talented Honduran artists. :)
