  • Joya de Ceren Archaeological Park
    Joya de Cerén is a pre-Columbian site in El Salvador located in the vicinity of San Juan Opico and Las Flores, in the Department of La Libertad, in the Central-Western Region of El Salvador. It was inhabited at least since the year 400 by an agricultural town tributary to San Andrés and was abandoned around the year 600 due to the eruption of Laguna Caldera. The site allows you to appreciate the daily life of a Mayan agricultural people from 1400 years ago (VII century), the only one known in El Salvador. It is one of the most important archaeological sites in Mesoamerica because it shows what life was like for ordinary people. That is why it is often called the Pompeii of America, compared to the archaeological site of Pompeii, located in Italy. In 1993, Joya de Cerén was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.
  • San Andres
    San Andrés is an archaeological site located in the Zapotitán valley, just five kilometers from Joya de Cerén, in the department of La Libertad. The site comprises an acropolis, which is an architectural space where activities restricted to a special group of people took place, possibly led by the ruling elite. The Acropolis is built by raising the ground level between structures 1, 2, 3 and 4 by using adobe bricks at the time of the heyday of San Andrés in the Late Classic. There is also a large plaza to the north of the Acropolis where other structures are located, including one in the shape of a bell, being the largest structure that San Andrés has. In the surroundings, it is estimated that common people lived, presuming that the Valley of Zapotitán was densely populated in pre-Hispanic times. Adobe brick construction predominates in most buildings, although the use of cut stone and tuff blocks has been documented in recent works.
  • Finca San Antonio
    An imposing ceiba tree welcomes you as you enter the Finca San Antonio, in the city of Chalchuapa, Santa Ana. According to the Mayan worldview, the thousand-year-old tree is a powerful symbol that represents the connection between the upper world, the material world, and the underworld. .
