Cerro Verde has viewpoints from where you can see the Izalco Volcano, the Santa Ana Volcano and Coatepeque Lake, but it also has areas where adults can rest peacefully in hammocks, under the shade of the leafy trees, while Children climb, descend and jump in games.

It is a bay full of natural beauty with mangroves (water trees) that by passing in the typical "pangas" (boats of local fishermen) you can see the animal wealth as well as full-color crabs, green iguanas, etc. I used to visit this particular beach for the holidays in the month of January. I haven´t been there in a while, but I'm waiting for the opportunity to walk through that area one more time.

Apuzunga is a 100% natural water park with swimming pools supplied with natural and crystalline springs which run freely towards the Guajoyo River, and the place offers a variety of delicious food, there is a farming of tilapia and right there you can cook whatever you fish.

TOURIST PLACES IN EL SALVADOR. (UNIT 8)

Traditions are part of the identity of a country because they describe the way in which people live and promote values from generation to generation. In El Salvador, as in many Central American countries, each year is celebrated one of the most important events of our history "Holy Week." However, many Asian and European countries don't usually celebrate this tradition. . Holy Week is a way of commemorating the life and resurrection of Jesus Christ for all people who are Christians, and for remember his precious sacrifice on the cross of Calvary. For many people, it is time to share with the family, some people enjoy the gastronomy of these dates, such as fish cakes, "torrejas" or mangos and jocotes en miel. Nevertheless, others seek adventures and new experiences. If you are one of these people, I invite you to visit some of beautiful places that El Salvador offers to enjoy this beautiful country.

1. LAGO COATEPEQUE (Coatepeque Lake).
This lake is considered one of the most beautiful in the world. It is located 18 km south of the city of Santa Ana in the municipality of El Congo, and the road to this lake is very pleasant, since there are stops with viewpoints and restaurants of typical foods. It has a confortable temperature, and in its waters you can practice many water sports, such as diving, sailing, kayaking, swimming and water skiing if you enjoy the adrenaline. Nonetheless, some people visit this paradisiacal place for its food. Outside its waters, there is a beautiful landscape, suitable for hiking and mountain biking.

2. PLAYA EL TUNCO (El Tunco Beach).
El Tunco beach is located 42 kilometers from San Salvador and it is part of "la ruta Sol y Playa" (the Sun and Beach Route) of El Salvador, making it a popular tourist destination for both domestic and foreign tourists. This beach is also considered one of the best beaches in El Salvador to practice the sport of surfing. In addition, you can taste delicious dishes of the area and have a nice time with your family. Some tourists prefer to visit this place in the afternoon in order to appreciate a beautiful sunset; however, some others prefer to visit the place in the morning because they can see a wonderful sunrise.

3. CHORROS DE LA CALERA.
Chorros de la Calera is a beautiful place located in the city of Juayúa, in the department of Sonsonate. Its name is due to the fact that from the rocks directly jets of natural and fresh water fall. The place is characterized by the variety of flowers and its waterfalls with crystalline and refreshing waters. Something unique about this place is the tunnel that connects two waterfalls, in which you can immerse yourself if you have the necessary equipment and taking the appropriate measures. However, if you don't have that equipment it is better that you don't try it.

4. PARQUE NACIONAL EL BOQUERÓN (El Boquerón National Park).
El Boquerón is located 20 minutes from the capital, on the San Salvador volcano. Despite being located in a rural area, El Boquerón has good security for tourists. With its rich flora and thick forest, it is easy to see different types of birds and native animals of the area such as the Torogoz, the tepezcuintle, among others. In addition to a beautiful variety of exotic flowers such as orchids. The park offers a walk through trails making stops at its 4 viewpoints where you can appreciate the flora of the place, the pine forests and have an amazing view of the Boquerón crater.

5. PUERTA DEL DIABLO (Devils door).
Puerta del Diablo is a tourist site located in the municipality of Panchimalco. Despite having a rather spooky name, it is a very pleasant place that is visited by tourists every year. Its main attraction is the crack formed by two boulders nestled on El Chulo hill, on whose summits, it is possible to observe a wide panorama of the surrounding territory. It is located one kilometer from Balboa Park. Canopy and rappel are the main attractions of those who love extreme sports, and who like to practice them in this place.

Some people prefer to rest in a hammock at the edge of the beach, instead of practicing extreme sports, and for this reason, our country offers both activities. El Salvador is an incredible country, its beaches, hills and the hospitality of the people, make it an ideal place to enjoy for this vacation, if you are from another country, and you still don't know it, I invite you to discover yourself this beautiful country, it will be worth!
