Two interesting sites to visit are Los Planes de Renderos / Puerta del Diablo, a rock formation with spectacular views of San Salvador on one side and the Volcanoes and Pacific Ocean on the other side. There are also several pupusa stands where you can taste this traditional salvadorean dish. The second one is located on the other side of the city: the San Salvador volcano, where one can almost drive up to the crater, there's a lookout into the crater, hiking into the crater and a fantastic view of the city below

There are a number of stunning lakes not far from San Salvador--to the north is Lake Souchitan about an hour out of the capital. Best view from Souchitoto--a charming art town.
