El Salvador

Nestled in Central America, El Salvador, the region’s smallest country, boasts a landscape of misty cloud forests, smoky volcanoes, and black-sand surf beaches. Its rich cultural heritage is evident in historical cities and mural-covered towns, where visitors can explore ash-preserved Mayan ruins. The slow-paced lifestyle invites travelers to savor the experience, and a highlight is sampling some of the world’s best coffee, a defining national feature.
