Three (Green) Weeks in San José

by besbel - last update: Apr 11, 2003

Irazú Volcano (from Ciudad Colon, San José)
The city of San José is the capital of Costa Rica. Located in the Central Valley, it is a place surrounded by the most variated forms of wildlife as well as volcanos (Poás and Irazú) and nature. It is also the central point from where you can reach their rich National Parks, their gorgeous beaches or its amazing rivers.

But San José has certain attraction on its own. Its warm people gives it the touch of life, something you can appreciate in their restaurants and nightlife. Some museums and buildings give away their colonial past and European artistic influences.

I really liked being there!! Hope that this page can show at least a little part of the things in the city (and the province) of San José that particularly impressed me. If comments of suggestions, please write me :) Enjoy!

Pros:"warm people, loved downtown, green all around!"
Cons:"unpredictable weather, a bit expensive, but I could deal with it :)"
In A Nutshell:"A town in the middle of nature!"
