El Rosario Church
The modern architectural design that departs from the traditional style of Salvadoran Catholic churches, El Rosario Church is the most remarkable and memorable landmark in the nation's capital and country. It distinguishes itself from other churches not because of its history but because of its modern, striking appearance. The best time to visit El Rosario is early in the morning or late in the afternoon, when the light reflected from the stained glass has the most dramatic effect.
