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


  2. 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.

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