Costa Rica...A Paradise To Share...
|
Diverse
sightseeing will take you to the exuberant nature of the cloud
forests, to the tropical dry plains which encompass a magical
combination of mystical scenery surrounded by a large variety
of flora and fauna, or hot beaches, some blanketed with white
sands covered by crystalline waters where you will be able
to appreciate the wealth of nature. Between the sea and the
mountain, the city and the jungle, in a colorful artistic
mix of natural landscapes, you will find the best of Costa
Rica: its people.
In
the midst of a pacific environment, where democracy and the
freedom of expression reign, one breathes the essence of tranquility
for the enjoyment of pleasant vacations. |

The country
abolished the army over 50 years ago, therefore, the only
battles fought since are for advancement, the eradication
of poverty, the creation of new opportunities for employment,
and the continuous search for a better quality of life.
Located between
Nicaragua and Panama, with an ideal climate throughout the year,
Costa Rica has a strategic geographic location since it serves as
the biological bridge between North and South America. Within its
51,000 square kilometers of territory is found 5% of the biodiversity
of the world, reason for which the country has taken actions to
protect and preserve its natural resources.
The country
has a literacy rate of 98% of the population, which allows practically
all the Costa Rican to express themselves without limitations. In
fact, Costa Rica has been the cradle of great poets and writers
who have captivated the interests of nationals and foreigners.

The art,
the music, the dance, and the foods are part of the secrets
that encircle our visitors in diverse and exquisite surroundings
where you will be able to experience from the flavor of the
Caribbean, the folklore and naturalness of our people, to
the most marvelous charms of the theater, the dance, the paintings
and the music among other delicate forms of expression.
Maybe
you will be intimidated by the legends of our country folk
about the "llorona" (crying woman), the "cadejos"
(dog dragging a chain), or the oxcart with no oxen; you may
be impressed by the heights of our mountains, the fury of
our volcanoes, and the depth of our rivers. If you are willing
to live an adventure, we will always have a place for you
at our table.
