Explore the Majestic National Palace of El Salvador

Getting There

• Walking

  Start at the main square (Plaza Central) in La Libertad. From the square, head east on Calle San José until you reach the intersection with Avenida El Salvador. Turn left onto Avenida El Salvador and continue straight for about 1.5 kilometers. You will pass several local shops and eateries along the way. Keep walking until you reach the bus terminal at the edge of La Libertad. Here, you can catch a bus heading to San Salvador. Make sure to board a bus that explicitly states it goes to 'Centro Histórico' or 'Centro de San Salvador'. The bus ride will take approximately 30-40 minutes, depending on traffic. Once you get off at the Centro Histórico, walk towards Avenida Cuscatlán; the National Palace of El Salvador will be directly ahead, marked by its impressive architecture.

• Public Transport

  Begin at the La Libertad bus terminal. Look for buses heading to San Salvador that are labeled 'San Salvador' or 'Centro Histórico'. The fare is usually minimal (around $0.50). The journey will take about 30-40 minutes. When you arrive at the bus stop in San Salvador (Centro Histórico), disembark and head towards Avenida Cuscatlán. The National Palace is located directly on this avenue, just a short walk away. You will recognize it by its distinct historical architecture.
