Lost on the Road: San Marcos Lempa & The Majestic Lempa River!

Welcome to a new adventure with Get Lost! In this journey, we explore the area of San Marcos Lempa to see the impressive current bridge that crosses the majestic Lempa River. We walked across its 375-meter-long structure, enjoyed the breathtaking views of El Salvador's largest river, and met a local pup who gave us a real lesson in street smarts by walking along the retaining wall to avoid bus traffic and pedestrians. But most importantly: we stood before the ruins of the legendary, original Puente de Oro (Golden Bridge). I'll tell you about the shocking chapter in 1981 that destroyed this engineering masterpiece and forever changed the history and economy of the entire eastern region of our country.
