EAL Segment – One of Honduras most beautiful landmarks is the clock from Comayagua, which is the oldest clock from America and the second oldest from all the world. The clock dates from 1100 made by the Arabs during their occupation of Spain. Given to the city of Comayagua as a gift by the King of Spain in 1620. It is still operational and works with the church bells. Hope you learned something new about Honduras today!
