Parque Cuscatlán is a nice park where everyone can spend time in a relaxing atmosphere. Due to its location it is one of the most popular places for relaxing. Important and attractive locations are around and inside the park, like the Monumento a la Memoria y la Verdad that is inside. The monument is a wall of 85 meters, made from granite, with all the names written in black. It opened in 2003 when a committee for civil victims decided to open it in order to commemorate the people that were killed during the 1970s. In addition, near the park is the Tin Martins Museum. The Sala Nacional de Exposiciones that presents exhibitions of contemporary art is also in close proximity.
