Pre-Columbian Gold Museum

A large collection of indigenous gold art.

Reviewed By F912ZCjosem

It's an excellent option while in San Jose. In particular, during rainy days. This attraction is very affordable and will entertain you and your family for 3-5 hours. I've spent 5 hours in there, but you can make this attraction as long or as short as you want. However, it's a very interesting collection.

Centro de Conservacion de Santa Ana

Nature and history come together in a unique space. Very close to San José is the Santa Ana Conservation Center, which offers visitors wide green areas, trails that border the facilities of the Agricultural Historical Museum and that take you to know our cactus and butterfly gardens, as well as the fauna rescue that lives in the park. Enjoy with your family or your business events in a wide area of Pic Nic equipped with ranches with all the comforts and internal parking for our visitors.
