The stelae and sculptured decorations of the buildings of Copán are some of the very finest surviving art of ancient Mesoamerica. Some of the stone structures at Copán date back to the 9th century BC. The city grew into one of the most important Maya sites by the 5th century with more than 20,000 inhabitants but was mysteriously abandoned a few centuries later. The nearby town of Copán Ruinas has all types of accommodations and other facilities for tourists.

FRANCE
If you come to France take in cosideration the following tips.

1. Do learn some basic French words and phrases (French people don't like too much to speak in English)
2. Do ride the metro at night and take the bus occasionally
3. Do not take cabs everywhere.
4. Do not talk loud in crowded and public places.
5. Asking someone the way.
Don’t do so unless you're prepared for a cold shower of Parisian scorn. Locals will either ignore you completely, look at you as if you've just crawled from under the nearest kerbstone or answer in impenetrable rapid-fire French – then walk off before you can ask them to repeat it. If you do get lost, look for another tourist to help you – or download the Telegraph Travel Guides app, which has a whole section on Paris.
6. Pay a navigo instead of a travel bus.
7. shops close on Sundays or only on morning
8. You may have to pay for the toilet.
9. Say always bonjour, merci, s'il vous plait and au revoir when you enter a shop, restaurant etc.
10. ALWAYS keep your right and dont stop in the middle (stairs, metro, streets)
11. Check the forecast before packing (you might need shorts, or sweaters etc.)
12. Make a budget for each day that you will stay here.
13. If you go out don’t take your wallet, just take some money and an ID , Beware of pickpockets.
14. Ignore beggars all the time.

If you need to know something else just ask.
