Located on the Pan-American Highway, the area is mostly dedicated to agriculture, in particular the cultivation of sugarcane and the production of salt through evaporated water. For most travellers, there is very little reason to come here other than as a pit stop for drivers however some may find an interest in the Museum of Salt and Sugar interesting and the town square to be charming.
