In this video, we take you around the beautiful city of Santa Ana, El Salvador. This beautiful city is El Salvador's second biggest and has some of the best preserved architecture in the country. There are a number of attractions inside and out of the city including markets, events, and beautiful natural experiences. Today, we walk through the history of Santa Ana and important landmarks such as the National Theatre, the Santa Ana Cathedral, and the beautiful parque libertad. We are also here at the perfect time for a very interesting festival: The Festival de Maiz! This festival is used to pray and get ready for the next corn harvest season. We were able to witness this community celebration with music, dancing, corn foods, and the crowning of this year's corn queen! 😊🌽

Tortas are Mexican but El Salvador has its own traditional sandwich called “Pan con Pavo” which is made with turkey, a traditional thick sauce made of spices, fresh vegetables, and a cole slaw made with mayo, mustard, and other traditional spices.

@JourneywithJenandDrew 11 месяцев назад

ahh yes! We've seen a lot of Pan con Pavo stands 😋

@xercanrz6334 11 месяцев назад

that tortas call mexican tortas, so it is not Mexican tortas only has the name that is. I don't know why but the Salvadorenos call it, So in Mexico they don't know the tortas Mexicanas

@salvadorianlivinginusa6660 11 месяцев назад

It is not called "Pan con Pavo" is called panes rellenos and is made with gallina india and is more like a traditional food that we cook for Christmas time but we can also eat it any time of the year, tortas is way different than panes rellenos o panes con pollo even the bread is different.

@CelvinAleman503 10 месяцев назад

Nah dude you're tripping, El Salvador has another type of tortas, made of ham, letter, tomato, cucumber, avocado and some kind of steak 😂🤦‍♂️ you slowed those tortas are found mostly in the streets

Soy santaneco de corazon ❤ y conozco la catedral de santa ana

@nellyoungblood2047 11 месяцев назад

I just came back from visiting after 30 yrs. The Cathedral has a stairway that leads to the top of roof of the church. I believe it was a $2 dolllar fee, great view. Also visit the waterpark name "Sihuatehuacacan " if it gets to hot, it does have a water slide. Also, the recently open a mirador " Viewpoint " near your bus stop in the video, but its a uphill trek. The viewpoint overlooks all Santa Ana. Safe Travels.

@JourneywithJenandDrew 11 месяцев назад

About tortas in 9:00 - tortas in El Salvador are different than the ones in México

@JourneywithJenandDrew 11 месяцев назад

Very interesting :)

@LaYziELoC7 11 месяцев назад

Loved the videos guys! When watching you guys eat elotes locos, it reminded me that us Salvadorans like to use Worcestershire sauce. Yes, the English dark red/black sauce. Not sure why it's popular. So if you were ever wondering what that sauce is, it might be "salsa Inglesa".

@JourneywithJenandDrew 11 месяцев назад

Yes! I thought that was super interesting! 😄

El turismo en esa zona es de lo mejor los alimentos son antojitos en todo el país el elote loco es de los más apetitosos en las fiestas patronales en todo el país y también la torta qué hay de muchos sabores en su mayoría todos son muy buenos la base principal de la torta es que siempre deben de llevar aguacate y frijoles untados como mantequilla adicional a eso llévame los ingredientes del gusto del cliente Ya sea carne de res o de cerdo también puede ser de pollo ojo de jamón también mortadela queso y otros ingredientes

I just subscribed. I have watched some of your videos. The reason I hadn't subscribed before is because many tourists go to El Salvador-in my opinion- just to get likes/views/subscriptions. But I think you guys are genuine. I love how you try to speak Spanish. As an emigrated person living in Canada and knowing what it's like having to learn a language I appreciate you guys doing a great job.

A torta in El Salvador is any thick pancake shaped thing For example a tortilla literally means small torta A torta de huevo is like a round omelette and so on

@JourneywithJenandDrew 11 месяцев назад

@FlyingNazgul-wm1dv 11 месяцев назад

@@JourneywithJenandDrew there's a few same named things that are different from what you'd expect because of famous Mexican food If you're not there anymore it maybe doesn't matter but for example quesadilla in El Salvador is a sweet sesame cheese bread, empanada is a plantain cream dessert and pasteles are like meat empanadas

@danielmelgar8918 6 месяцев назад

Tortas are spanish. They made french bread wider. Arab inspired them to add meat and sauce. Shawarma is flat bread with meat and sauce. They also inspired the taco and tortas. Bread, cured meats and cheese are European. Empanadas are Portuguese. Salvadorians call them pastelitos. Yuca if from Africa, same as coffee. And Peru invented the french fries. Because the patato is native to peru. French fries are a side dish like vegetable or a salad to them. Tomatoes, Red Hot Chillie peppers, Corn, squash, beans, pumpkins, berries, avocado's, dragon fruit, passion fruit are American. North, Central, south America these plants are native to the Americans.

Puebla Some historians claim that the torta was created in Puebla, in south-central Mexico, before the Mexican-American war of 1846-1848. Under those circumstances, people sometimes lived hand-to-mouth and the torta reflects that kind of culture: it's filling, cheap to make, and easy to carry around.
