Juayúa
About Juayúa
Juayúa is a municipality in the Sonsonate department, located in the highlands of the Ruta de las Flores, among high-altitude coffee plantations. The climate is cool year-round due to the altitude of the mountains surrounding the urban area with its cobblestone streets. The mountain chill seeps into the town even during the dry months of the year. The economy of the municipality revolves around the cultivation and processing of coffee, complemented by the trade of handicrafts in the urban center. The town can be explored on foot in about an hour, with cobblestone streets that rise and fall between colonial-style houses.
