Introduction
Although there are tons of cliches and rumors, Latin America is the best continent for explorers. There are a lot of places to discover, different cultures to see and museums to learn from.
We’ve already talked about a few of them like Chile being The narrowest country in the world or Bolivia with 2 capitals!
El Salvador is probably the most underrated Latin nation. It is the smallest country in Central America as well as the most densely populated country in Central America.
This country is full of wonders. Let’s discover them in this post.
