Overview

Experience a guided journey through time walking through the streets of the historic center of the capital of El Salvador, visiting what was the Plaza Mayor founded by the Spanish in 1545 and in front of it the El Rosario church with a unique design throughout. Latin America and which keeps as much history as beauty inside, then we continue towards the oldest Social Club in the country: La Dalia. The Morazán and Gerardo Barrios squares as well as the façade of the National Theater, a jewel of art, and the visit to the interiors of the National Palace will impress you and even more so the Metropolitan Cathedral in whose basement is the Crypt of the first Salvadoran saint: Monsignor Oscar Arnulfo Romero.
