The name Pulhapanzak originates from Mayan language, translating to white river overflow, reflecting the indigenous presence in the region through centuries.

Local residents maintain traditional practices near the waterfall, incorporating the natural formation into their daily routines and community gatherings.

The site charges an entrance fee of 100 Lempira for adults and provides activities including zip lining, cave exploration, and tubing along the river.

Honduras: national parks, Copán ruins, Caribbean islands

Honduras holds a range of natural sites and archaeological locations along its Caribbean coastline and mountainous interior. The Copán ruins stand among the most important remnants of the Mayan civilization, displaying intricate stonework and the Hieroglyphic Stairway. Several islands in the Bay Islands, including Roatán, Utila, and Guanaja, offer sandy shores and access to coral reefs. National parks such as Pico Bonito, La Tigra, and Celaque protect rainforests and mountain ecosystems with trails through dense vegetation. Lake Yojoa sits between forested hills and serves as a habitat for migratory birds. The capital city of Tegucigalpa contains the 18th-century cathedral, along with the Museum for National Identity and the Garífuna Cultural Center, which provide insight into the country's history and culture. The Christ of Picacho statue overlooks the city from a hilltop. Along the northern coast, the Lancetilla Botanical Garden in Tela holds collections of tropical plants. Protected areas like the Río Plátano Biosphere Reserve and the Moskitia region in the east preserve remote rainforests and wetlands. Cayos Cochinos consists of small islands with clear waters off the coast near La Ceiba.
