Discover the fascinating Mayan civilization with a visit to the Joya de Cerén archaeological site — a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1993. Dubbed the Pompeii of America, Joya de Cerén is a pre-Columbian Maya farming village preserved remarkably intact under layers of volcanic. The village was buried by a volcanic eruption around AD 600.
Next, explore the archaeological site of San Andrés — an important ceremonial and political center with several structures remaining that were used by Mayan governors. Check out the remains of an Indigo Mill buried by the eruption of El Playon in 1658 before you head back to the port.
Notes:
