Editorial Reviews:
Sometimes referred to as "The Pompeii of the Americas", Joya de Ceren is the only UNESCO World Heritage site in El Salvador. Formerly a small farming community, as early as even the 13th century BC, it was evacuated in the 3rd century AD after the eruption of a nearby volcano. Because of weather conditions and ash consistency, the town has been remarkable well preserved. In this Audio Journey, host Patricia L. Lawrence tells us about the sites around town. As always, Lawrence is both friendly and informative, a real pleasure to have as a travel companion.
