Workation in Matagalpa: the essentials
Up in the northern highlands, at over 700 m, Matagalpa is Nicaragua's largest city in the interior, with about 113,000 people and the nickname Land of Eternal Spring. Coffee built it: German and other European settlers started plantations in the 19th century, and the surrounding farms still grow a large share of the national crop. The town itself is a working market centre and the birthplace of Sandinista founder Carlos Fonseca, with cloud forest at reserves such as Selva Negra in the hills around it. Buses run to Managua and Augusto C. Sandino International Airport is about 95 km away. You will need Spanish.
