When is holy week in el salvador? i wan to go there during that time.?

Holy week in El Salvador in 2008 will be Sunday, March 16 - Sunday March 23.

The celebrations are amazing and the processions throughout the cities are very exciting.

There are 2 perspectives to Semana Santa (Holy Week) in El Salvador, and they are both to be experienced:

Try a large city like Santa Tecla or San Salvador for a day or two, and then try the smaller, rural cities like Armenia or Izalco. Very different, both very enjoyable.

Although I lived in Santa Tecla for many years, I enjoy Armenia as I feel there is a simpler sense of faith. People aren't there for the show, and I prefer it that way.

Don't forget to go to one of the many beaches during Semana Santa. Although very crowded on the weekends, It can be a lot of fun. You could also go during the week for a smaller crowd.

Below is an article from El Diario De Hoy detailing events of Semana santa.

Enjoy.

Holy Week is Palm Sunday to Easter Sunday and it is the same dates the world over.

it start the 16 of march and it end on the 21
