El Salvador's capital and largest city lies in a valley at the foot of the large San Salvador volcano. Shanty towns abound and the streets are lined with people selling everything.
Accommodation is concentrated near the eastern and western bus stations. You can find better service and safety in a few places near the center and a whole slew of guesthouses on the city's western edge. The Zona Rosa is the ritziest and most exclusive restaurant and nightlife district.
