Renowned for its Pacific Ocean beaches, surfing, lush landscapes, and pristine natural habitats, El Salvador is an eco-traveler’s paradise that is also known as the Land of Volcanoes for having 25 visible volcanoes. At approximately 8,108 square miles, which is roughly the size of the state of Massachusetts, El Salvador is the smallest country in Central America, sharing borders with Guatemala and Honduras in the southeast region of the Mesoamerica, and the only country in the region without coastline on the Caribbean Sea. Its centrally situated capital, San Salvador, is a diverse city known for business, a vibrant nightlife, and emerging art scene. The summit of Monte Cristo Mountain is one of the highest point, offering a nature preserve and cloud forest. Among El Salvador’s most popular tourist destinations are two vast national parks – El Impossible and Parque Nacional Los Volcanoes, which contains about 500 species of birds and mammals. Other popular attractions are Ruta de Las Flores, a winding journey past flowering coffee farms and rainforest zip-line sites; colonial towns like Juayúa, with its weekend food festival; Ataco, home to vivid murals; and Playa El Tunco, a surfing village with black sand beaches
