San Salvador is the capital city of the nation of El Salvador. The valley where it is located was earlier known as "El Valle de las Hamacas" because of its high seismic activity. San Salvador is the second largest city in Central America.

San Salvador is a powerhouse - the cultural and cosmopolitan heart of the country.it abounds with museums, cultural centers, bars and cafes. Six-lane avenues and glittery malls keep the city buzzing. What San Salvador lacks in colonial grandeur, it makes up for in class and personality. Wander through the Teatro Nacional, with its red velvet opulence and sensuous mural, or around one of the city's five markets; the interesting Mercado Ex-Cuartel has handicrafts, hand-woven textiles and ceramics.

Pollution remains one of the city's biggest problems. Located in a valley, San Salvador is a perfect pollution trap. Fueling this, the city struggles with an increasing traffic problem. New highways and arterial roads offer some relief. According to a study by the United Nations, El Salvador was ranked as the second worst polluter of carbon dioxide emissions in Central America.

The restaurant scene in San Salvador is influenced by many different cultures. food options include Italian, Korean, Japanese, French, Chilean, American, Peruvian, Mexican, Spanish, Middle Eastern, German, Chinese, Argentinian and others. Local food options include Tipicos Margot where one can purchase the famous Salvadoran Pupusas.

There are four main zones for accommodations: the city center (cheap, but a bit sketchy at night), Parque Cuscatlán (reasonably priced and much safer), Boulevard de los Héroes (the only place for hostels) and the area around Colonía Escalón and Zona Rosa (top-end, high-rise).
