Moncagua is a municipality in the San Miguel department of El Salvador.

Moncagua is also a well known area of hot springs. Moncagua is known as "tierra caliente" or "hot land" in literal English translation. From the Nauathl (language of the Lenca, the indigenous population that used to live there) it literally means land of rabbits, rocks and water.
