Introducing Santa Ana

A shining star, Santa Ana is the only major city in El Salvador that is overwhelmingly colonial, with a shady plaza, grand old buildings and a striking Gothic cathedral. Add to that a decent selection of accommodations, a lively food and bar scene, and big-city services, and Santa Ana makes a fine place to spend a couple days - or, better yet, a base for exploring the western corners of the country.
