Shopping
While the artesenias available in Honduras may not be as wide-ranging or as colourful as those in Guatemala, there are a number of crafts that are instantly recognizable as Honduran. The range of carved wooden goods , particularly those produced around Valle de Angeles is extensive, from simple bowls and dishes to elaborate chests and doors, while in the highlands and around Copan ceramics , including replicas of Maya pottery and artefacts, are produced. On the north coast the speciality is cotton hammocks , along with Garifuna handicrafts, music and paintings. Good-quality cigars are sold in Tegucigalpa, Santa Rosa de Copan and Copan, and a number of companies in Tegucigapla and San Pedro Sula sell high-quality leather goods at around half European prices. For everyday goods, the general markets in every town usually provide a bewildering range of cheap clothing, food and household goods. More expensive boutiques and supermarkets are limited to Tegucigalpa and San Pedro Sula.
