Joya de Cerén is a pre-Columbian site in El Salvador located in the vicinity of San Juan Opico and Las Flores, in the Department of La Libertad, in the Central-Western Region of El Salvador. It was inhabited at least since the year 400 by an agricultural town tributary to San Andrés and was abandoned around the year 600 due to the eruption of Laguna Caldera. The site allows you to appreciate the daily life of a Mayan agricultural people from 1400 years ago (VII century), the only one known in El Salvador. It is one of the most important archaeological sites in Mesoamerica because it shows what life was like for ordinary people.

The Acropolis is built by raising the ground level between structures 1, 2, 3 and 4 by using adobe bricks at the time of the heyday of San Andrés in the Late Classic. There is also a large plaza to the north of the Acropolis where other structures are located, including one in the shape of a bell, being the largest structure that San Andrés has.
