Parque Arqueológico Joya de Cerén

Fantastic piece of Salvadorean history with the ancient houses in there. The museum is small but nice, the place includes toilets, access to wheel chairs, parking and tour guides if you need.

To be honest I am a little disappointed with my visit. Staff is friendly and plenty of parking (went there on a rainy day) but to be compared to the Pompeii is a little much. The only similarities with Pompeii is the fact both sites were covered with ashes. For 10$ a person (none residents) it isn’t worth it. It is a tiny site and pictures on google reviews is showing the Maya temple which isn’t there but on another archeological site. I am glad the descriptions panels were in three langages, Spanish, English and French. I would not really recommend it! I hope other sites are better.

NO PYRAMIDS. some people have posted pictured of pyramids but they don't exist at this location they are a different place. This place is just a museum and archeological viewing. Super cool loved learning about our peoples history and the findings of how people lived. $10 entrance well worth it $1 for citizens which is super reasonable. I see some reviews complain of price where I live it's $20 for a museum up to $50 for places like the aquarium. 10nis very reasonable. 1 for locals is appropriate please remember they do not earn as much as foreigners do, don't be ignorant and cheap,otherwise stay home and go to your local library to look at pictures.

A much cooler archaeological site than I had expected. The civilization was completely covered by an explosion of Ash preserving much of it very well. Entrance was $5 with $1 for parking. It took about an hour to see it. Definitely worth a quick stop.

Pompeii of the Americas and the plants are just beautiful here. Very unexpected calming stroll through time. Great for anyone even on a date!

The archeological site is not really big yet you get a picture of how people used to live there and how their lives were affected by the volcanic eruptions. I suggest spending at least 1hour !

Worth seeing if you’re nearby. Well maintained and interesting. The tour is included in your entrance fee. You can see everything in 90 minutes. The 108 bus goes directly outside the site. The cafe looked permanently shut there.

A good drive to this historic place. The charged 10$ and $1 to park. Only took around 20 min to see the exhibit, and there is a small museum to look also. It is a good place to fill in the day and see. Close to other historical places
