Add a little bit of amusement to your vacation to San Salvador with a trip to the top of the hill of San Jacinto., southeast of the city on the opposite side of the Acelhuate River. The view from the cable car is enough to make the trip worthwhile, but if that isn’t enough to get you to the top, perhaps the Teleferico San Jacinto Amusement Park is. A number of mechanical games make this a fun and different place to spend the day.

Meals can be enjoyed a number of restaurants throughout the park. If you decide to pack your own food, you can settle down at one of the park’s many picnic areas. From one side of the park you can look down on San Salvador, and from the other you can see the beautiful Lake of Ilopango. This is a truly unique experience for anyone traveling to Central America, and comes highly recommended by the El Salvadorian Gringo.
