Tin Marin, Children's Museum, Children's museum in San Salvador, El Salvador
Description
Tin Marin is a children's museum in San Salvador organized into four themed areas focused on health, technology, culture, and environment, each offering hands-on learning experiences. Each section features interactive stations where children can experiment and explore by doing rather than observing.
