The Intercontinental Hotel in the heart of Managua–one of the few buildings that survived the massive earthquake that destroyed Managua on December 23, 1972.

**Correction: “This is the old Intercontinental; at some point (probably in the 90s), it was bought by Crowne Plaza and a new Intercontinental Hotel was built by Metrocentro.” (correction thanks to Jennifer Marshall)
