We welcome you to a very different kind of way of promoting our country. Even though we have literally hundreds of centuries of rich traditions that date back to eons even before the New World was discovered, we will not center on our ancestral roots, traditions or heritage in this particular occasion.
We will rather take you on a journey of what El Salvador is now in the 21st Century. We want to take you on a visual tour to motivate you to visit and/or possibly invest in the El Salvador of today; a country full of dinamic people, a modern infrastructure and multinational businesses from all over the world. Believe it or not.... Yes: This Is El Salvador!
TRAVELLERS AND INVESTORS ALIKE: MAY EL SALVADOR BE YOUR NEW HOMELAND
