Our city

The sun town of La Unión

Intipucá sits on the Gulf of Fonseca. The name comes from Nahuat — Inti, the sun. Since 1968, families have also lived a second life in Washington, Maryland, and Virginia.

This site is the plaza online: who is open, what is for sale, when the fiestas start, and how to get home.
