One of the most beautiful places<br />
of El Salvador.<br />
The bay of La Union, has one of<br />
the most important ports of El<br />
Salvador.<br />
CORSAIN port, is one of the busiest<br />
in domestic and international<br />
trade.<br />
The bay borders with Honduras<br />
and Nicaragua, and is an excellent<br />
place for fishing.<br />
All the people who come here, fall<br />
in love with the place.<br />
Pag. 12
Overview of wetland: Union Bay is an<br />
important habitat complex marine and<br />
estuarine wetlands. At the marina stands<br />
the highest concentration of low muddy and<br />
sandy country, covering them almost all the<br />
waters of the Bay. In the terrestrial include<br />
mangroves, these being the third in size of El<br />
Salvador, while part of a tri-national<br />
ecological and social group which is one of<br />
the largest expanses of forests of this type<br />
found in Central America. terms<br />
general is a low-growing mangrove showing<br />
significant deterioration processes by<br />
uncontrolled logging and the creation of salt<br />
works on the edges and inside. Within the<br />
wetland are two islands (Perico and<br />
Parakeet) partly covered by forest sweet,<br />
that are almost connected to the mainland<br />
at low tide. Several communities living in or<br />
near the mangrove bivalve shellfish<br />
engaging and crabs and fishing. Around the<br />
salt mangrove and shrimp thrive, often at<br />
the expense of reducing the original surface<br />
of this habitat, and some areas of<br />
herbaceous swamps and reeds or bulrushes.<br />
The uncertainty of land ownership is very<br />
marked in the area as well as the very<br />
limited presence of agents of state or nongovernmental<br />
and invasions of mangrove<br />
areas. The wetland environment is<br />
composed of land areas converted to<br />
pasture for cattle grazing, known locally as<br />
"backpacks", typical of this region.<br />

Alegría a great place for sightseeing in El Salvador<br />
Algeria is one of the most beautiful places that<br />
people can visit and discover here in El Salvador<br />
which is located at approximately 1,200 meters<br />
above sea level in the department of Usulután.<br />
The municipality's cool climate lends itself to many<br />
thriving local plant nurseries, some of which<br />
specialize in tropical flowers such as birds of<br />
paradise, anthuriums, orchids, and varieties of<br />
bromelias. The town is famous for its volcanic lake,<br />
the Alegría Lagoon, which is a national protected<br />
area managed by the NGO ADESCAM<br />
Here there is a description about Alegria langoon<br />
Alegria lagoon<br />
In the Sierra of Chinameca one of the most<br />
important volcanoes is Tecapa, located at 26<br />
kilometers away from Usulután, and 2 kilometers to<br />
the south of Alegria. Its peak, in the famous plain of<br />
Quemela, at 1,603 meters above sea level exhibits a<br />
big rocky crater, oval and guided from east to west<br />
in whose bottom, in eccentric position to the<br />
southeast and at 1,250 meters high, a small crater<br />
form lake of yellow-greenish waters exists, resting<br />
on mantels of sulfur. The highest part of the crater<br />
circumvallation to the northeast is the culminating<br />
point of the volcanic cone and the lowest is to the<br />
east and at 1,275 meters high. In that area a current<br />
of lava was spilled in prehistoric time.<br />
The little lagoon is one of the most beautiful places<br />
of the country. It was called formerly Tecapa, the<br />
same as the volcano, but from recent times it is also<br />
denominated "Laguna de Alegria", because it is next<br />
to the city of the same name. It has thermal sources<br />
and fumaroles, mainly in the northwest direction<br />
and a circumvallation highway for driven vehicles. In<br />
nahuat language the name of Tecapa means<br />
"Lagoon of stones." In the skirts of the volcano<br />
Tecapa, to the north, are the thermal sources or<br />
fumaroles of Bufadero, Tronador, Tronadorcito,<br />
Loma China, and El Pinar.<br />

• The park of Algeria<br />
• In the park of the city of Alegria, the bust in<br />
memory of educator Presbytery José<br />
Miguel Alegria is erected. He was a<br />
remarkable professor of Latin who founded<br />
in the town of Tecapa around 1838, a<br />
philosophy school. Because of the Law of<br />
February 17 of 1891, the city of Tecapa was<br />
denominated city of Alegria. This famous<br />
professor's body remains in the crypt of this<br />
population's parochial church<br />
• The current temple of Alegria began being<br />
built on August 26, 1870. Alegria is the<br />
cradle of the illustrious Salvadoran teacher<br />
and thinker don Alberto Masferrer.<br />

• HOW TO GET THERE’?<br />

towards Berlin and Alegria. It will take you<br />

through Santiago de Maria. But be careful<br />
as we arrived at 4:45 to catch a bus from<br />
Usulutan to Alegria and the last bus had left<br />
already, or so we were told by the locals<br />
and we didn't want to chance getting stuck<br />
