El Salvador, a country tucked in Central America, shares borders with Guatemala, Honduras, and the Pacific Ocean. With a population estimate of 6.5 million in 2023, the nation pulses with vibrant local culture. Its capital, San Salvador, is not only the largest city but also the beating heart of the country's cultural and social life.

The country's rich tapestry of history is woven from threads of its past Mesoamerican nations such as the Lenca, Mayans, and Cuzcatlecs, the very cultures that laid the foundations of El Salvador. Influenced by Spanish colonial rule in the 16th century, the nation's identity transformed, leading to its eventual independence in 1821. Subsequent political and economic flux prompted the Salvadoran Civil War in the late 20th century, which has shaped what the nation is today.

Despite its modest size, El Salvador boasts a rich archaeological heritage that showcases its ancient civilizations like the Lenca and Maya. From its colonial period under the Captaincy General of Guatemala to the national hero Lempira who resisted Spanish colonization, El Salvador's past is a compelling mixture of triumph and struggle. Today, El Salvador uses the United States dollar as its currency, offers an accessible business environment, and flaunts one of the lowest levels of income inequality in Latin America and the Caribbean.

When to visit El Salvador

El Salvador is treasured year-round, but the sweet spot for most travellers lies between November and March when the climate is most forgiving.
