Volcanic mountain range in El Salvador
Cordillera de Apaneca Volcano Range
Cordillera de Apaneca is a volcanic mountain range in western El Salvador . It consists mainly of volcanoes. Ilamatepec volcano, one of the most active in the region, is a part of this range.
The volcanoes in the range Santa Ana Volcano , Izalco Volcano , and Cerro Verde were the inspiration for the two active and one dormant volcanoes in Antoine de Saint-Exupéry 's novella The Little Prince , based on his life with his Salvadoran wife Consuelo de Saint-Exupéry , who was The Rose in the story.[citation needed ]
