Lonely
Planet - El Salvador
Its name still evokes images of the brutal civil war fought throughout the
1980s, but the bloodshed is long over - the volcanic landscape remains the
most turbulent aspect of El Salvador. Friendly locals like to chat, diverting
your gaze from the gangs and refugees to beautiful broad valleys.
