What to do and see in San Jose, Province of San Jose: The Best Nature & Wildlife Areas
Vibrant and packed with Victorian mansions, Costa Rica's rowdy, bustling capital was built on the profits of the coffee trade and working "golden bean" plantations still surround the city. Try freshly roasted local beans at Mercado Central. For shinier gold, visit the Museo del Oro. Many renovated landmarks now house stylish hotels. Usually viewed as a hub, rather than a destination, nightlife is concentrated in Spanish village-inspired El Pueblo. Don't miss the elegant 1897 National Theater.

Beautiful hike in the thick forest protected from the rain. We had rain and sun and a beautiful morning. First hike is about an hour, second one across the highway about 30 min. The friendly ranger pointed out a three toed sloth in a tree near the parking lot . Pack a lunch as there are picnic tables, bathrooms and drinking water.

I just visited the garden and it was really nice. Quite small but worth the visit. The butterfly enclose is beautiful with lovely flowers, plants and pond. So many different kinds of butterflies that you don’t often see in other places. There us also a great walk down to the river through a rainforest which was wonderful. Such beautiful scenery and so peaceful. I would visit again and recommend it highly!
