Workation in Leon: the essentials
León has long been Nicaragua's political and intellectual centre and the historic rival of Granada. Now the second-largest city in the country, with about 214,000 people in the municipality, it lies on the Río Chiquito some 18 km inland from the Pacific. The national university, founded in 1812, keeps it full of students, and the poet Rubén Darío is buried in the huge white cathedral, a UNESCO site. Visitors ride boards down the ash of Cerro Negro, Poneloya and Las Peñitas are the nearest beaches, and Augusto C. Sandino International Airport is about 85 km away. It gets very hot here for much of the year.
