Landscapes, nature, spectacular scenery: all this and more come together in Costa Rica, a natural paradise in which San José acts as a host, welcoming all as the capital of one of the countries most loved by nature.
San José/Costa Rica is one of the most frequently-visited places in the world. Hundreds of trips and tours are offered to enjoy the leisure of its tranquil beaches, calm slopes, beautiful forests and enchanting attractions. Take note that the point of entry and departure for this country is in José, the capital of the Republic and the centre of judicial and political power. Created as a canton in the 19th century, San José’s significance extends through only recent history as zone of passage between South America and North America. It is only since 1815 that Costa Rica and its capital have experienced strong economic, demographic and of course touristic, growth.
San José boasts many attractions, although in general the primary enchantment comes from the country’s volcanoes, rivers, beaches and forests. There are dozens of places that are worth visiting, making this an unforgettable destination. As far as the capital goes, one can visit the numerous theaters, the National Park, the National Museum or the Children’s Museum.
But any traveler or adventurer looking for an organized trip cannot leave without spending a few days in the surrounding environs. San José is the departure point for some of the earth’s most enchanting locations. Coasts bathed by the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean Sea. Heredia, the smallest province in the country, contains the Barva Volcano, an attraction worth seeing, in Braulio Carrillo National Park. In the region of Guanacaste, the development of rural tourism takes the center of the stage… that, and its magnificent beaches. In Puntarenas, or “the pearl of the Pacific”, we find ourselves in dense forests only a few meters from impressive beaches. Here we find Manuel Antonio National Park and the biological reserve of Carara. Cartago, or the Old Metropolis, owes its significance to its large catalogue of the country’s colonial art. In Alajuela one can admire some of the country’s most important volcanoes such as Poas volcano and Arenal.
