Local Traditions

Hondurans celebrate national holidays and events in their town in the form of carnivals, fairs and parades throughout the entire year. Honduras is a predominantly Catholic country, and many celebrations occur during Holy Week. In some regions of the country, such as Comayagua, Choluteca and Copan, processions are held, especially during Thursday and Good Friday.

About 6 % of the Honduran population are indigenous people sub-divided into small groups. Of these groups, the Lencas are the majority. Culturally, the Lencas have lost their language and the majority of their religious practices however, they still offer gifts to their ancestral gods, and some of their original forms of dress are still preserved.
