The country of Costa Rica.

Tweet

Has anyone been to Costa Rica or do you live there? It's becoming more of a popular place to visit and travel, I know a lot of people who have gone or would like to go there. It is known as the 'Switzerland of Central America' for it's 'peaceful' reputation. The capital is San Jose and the locals call themselves 'Ticos'. They have a lot of national parks and reserves there. The national tree is the guanacaste and a province is named after it. Costa Rica was the first Central American country to cultivate bananas. I'm fascinated about the Mystery Stone Balls they found in the Diquis region. They're about 1000 years old but nobody knows why and what it's for. http://www.mysteryspheres.com/info.htm
