A stroll, from Iglesia El Rosario to the Metropolitan Cathedral. San Salvador.
It is only a short stroll of just under a mile to the Metropolitan Cathedral, from El Rosario. let's people watch and snap away as we walk. thankfully I am one of those fortunate folk who can multi-task.
The age of the flat screen TV is yet to arrive in San Salvador.
Club la Dalia originally opened in 1937 by Don Carlos Barrios as a billiard hall and meeting place, now a mix of disco cum pool hall cum place for the hipsters to hang out.
"Feed the birds, tuppence a bag" sang Mary Poppins not realising she was encouraging rats with tails to shit on people.
The San Salvador volcano, standing at 6,200 ft, dominates the skyline the last major eruption was in 1917 so maybe the 1.1 million residents can sleep easy.

But judging by the vintage of that place, they may believe they are still in 1917.

cheers @nanixxx , you know, all across mainland Central America there were lots and lots of shoe shine boys, which I found fascinating as they seem to have disappeared in Europe
Architecture depicts age of town, old but clean except the rats on wings, agree not a bird one should entice into cities or towns.
