San Pedro Sula is Honduras' economic and commercial hub, and for most travelers it's just a stopping point on the way to Tela, La Ceiba or Copan Ruinas. Indeed, the city does not boast much in terms of attractions. Still, it's a pleasant place with a laid-back charm and a long history.
San Pedro's commercial importance dates back to its foundation in 1536. From its inception, it functioned as a colonial mint where the Spaniards brought gold to be smelted before exportation. Originally it was situated on the coast, close to the modern city of Choloma, in order to better facilitate the sea trade.
