In 1817 a bridge construction started over the Choluteca River to connect Tegucigalpa with the neighboring city of Comayagüela. Tegucigalpa became the capital of Honduras in 1824. Tegucigalpa is the country’s political and governmental center. Tegucigalpa is home to the country’s public university the “National Autonomous University of Honduras” and government-owned electrical power and telecommunication companies.
Tegucigalpa’s economy is based on the production of clothing, cigarettes, plywood, ceramics, glass, plastics, tires, farm machinery, textiles, sugar, lumber, paper, cement, metalware, chemicals, and electrical appliances. The only way to ship out freight from the city is by tracking to Puerto Cortés or San Lorenzo by air through Toncontín airport.
