El Salvador is the smallest and most densely populated country in Central America, wedged between the Pacific, Guatemala to the west, and Honduras to the north. Beaches and wild islands, charming villages, coffee plantations in the mist, the road of flowers, a Mayan site classified by Unesco, the immense Lake Coatepeque, a country rich in history, a pleiad of volcanoes, El Salvador should seduce you for sure.
With one of the best road networks in Latin America and a small surface area, El Salvador is very easy to visit because bus transportation works well. They are American buses repainted in colors but not always comfortable for long journeys of a few hours. We call them "Chicken buses" because we are all squeezed inside! The capital, San Salvador, is set in a spectacular volcanic landscape and hosts many museums and the National Theater. From the capital, there are many possibilities to travel around the country. You are a 30-minute drive from the beach and a 20-minute drive from the nearest volcanoes.
The country's official language is Spanish, and its currency is USD. Whether you're in San Salvador, Santa Ana, Soyapango, San Miguel, or anywhere in El Salvador, you can buy cryptos using USD on Bitget. Bitget is one of the most secure cryptocurrency exchange platforms that acquired U.S. MSB License, Canada MSB License, and Australian (DCE) License to ensure you have the safest trading experience.
