Trip to El Salvador
Last week I took a three day trip to El Salvador, where by the way there will be a Bitcoin symposium, meeting, seminar or something like that in January. I started the trip in San Pedro Sula, Honduras on a first class bus, only 24 seats, wifi, a/c, tv on each seat, hookups for charging phones, nice indeed. The trip took 10 hours both ways, but each time we lost two hours just with border hassles. Since I am Honduran I only need my idea to enter El Salvador, no need of a passport.
I must say the Honduras highways, first from San Pedro to Comayagua which has three lanes and is in a good part a mountain road, and from Comayagua to the border a great four lane highway, were tip top shape. The highways in el Salvador were not quite as good plus they have an 80 KPH speed limit.
Honduras is mostly mountain ranges with mid size valleys in between, El Salvador, at least going east until the capital is flat with an occasional mountain or a small range. they do have volcanos though, I saw three, quite impressive. We got to the capital, San Salvador around four pm. A nice looking city too.
Well we had a hotel that was centrally located, just blocks from the historic center which is what we were aiming for. and it really was nice, and yes the place is very safe. The historic center was a Christmas village, i will now show you some photographs.
This is inside the National Library.
This is the national library building.
The cathedral
As you can see it is a very nice city, and the streets are full of people, vendors, tourists and just people on their daily work. The currency is the US Dollar and I think it is slightly cheaper than Honduras, at least than the place where I live. A great trip, except for those ten hours on a bus each way.
