Being a tourist in MANAGUA does require some resolve, but there are things to enjoy and do. Several of Managua's attractions are located near the Plaza de la República, including the municipal cathedral, which has been renovated. Near the cathedral is the impressively restored Palacio Nacional, which exhibits two very large paintings of Augusto Sandino and Carlos Fonseca at the entrance. The Huellas de Acahualinca museum exhibits the ancient footprints of exiting toward the lake from a volcanic eruption. The Museo de la Revolución has fine historical exhibits.
