10 Things to do Good for Kids in San Salvador That You Shouldn't Miss

September 22, 2021 Phylicia Berquist

El Salvador's capital, San Salvador, is a modern city of wide boulevards and narrow streets, outdoor markets, government buildings, high-rises, monuments, an exuberant nightlife, museums and other cultural institutions. And all set against the backdrop of San Salvador volcano. The city is surrounded by shantytowns as well as affluent suburbs with restaurants and large shopping malls. Peaceful settings such as the botanic garden of Parque Cuscutlan provide a break from the city's hectic pace.

Jardin Botanico La Laguna

Reviewed By Firsdown - West Sussex, United Kingdom

A wonderful oasis of calm in a hot, busy car filled city. Well maintained particularly considering that it is in a developing country. Plenty of facilities and interesting wildlife such as large iguanas, terrapins and plenty of birds. Small but perfectly formed!

Parque Nacional El Boqueron

Reviewed By mikebrownnz - Cardiff, United Kingdom

El Boqueron is a relatively short drive from San Salvador and you can be taken to within a relatively short distance of the summit. It takes a normal person about ten minutes to walk the track to the top. There is a track that once used to lead a long way around the rim and down to the bottom of the crater but this is no longer maintained and specifically advised against using. Once at the summit, there are four viewing points along about a fifty metre section of the rim. There is also a small information centre next to the car park and a wonderful view back across San Salvador and Lake Ilopango to the volcano of San Vicente. Slightly further down the hillside there are a couple of restaurants which have even clearer views than from the top.
