The Central Cathedral is the largest church in Alajuela, located in the heart of the city. The entire church has a distinct Spanish style, with beautiful murals depicted on the long arched roof inside. In addition, the central dome and shrine are extremely luxurious, which is the highlight of the entire church, and you must watch it carefully.

The Museum of History and Culture of Santa Maria Juan is the most worthwhile museum in Alajuela. It displays the history of the indigenous peoples of Costa Rica, with many statues and ornaments, and is an important exhibition area of Costa Rican history and culture, a place that is very necessary to come.

Visitors to Arena Volcano Park are welcome, and the bubble volcanic hot springs are simply too enjoyable. The country is really a country that is brave! There are more than 270 volcanoes here, the most famous is Arena volcano located near the famous tourist resort of La Fortuna in northern Costa Rica. It had a devastating eruption in 1968, and it entered a long dormant state after 2010. Now it is a national park for tourists to visit. On the way to the volcano, you can see many small ants moving in groups and against the mini leaves to the observation deck. The view is very good. There is always a cloud and mist around the crater, surrounded by cloud and fog forests. There is a dining shop next to it, you can have a drink and look at the volcano. The scenery here is too suitable for wide angles, enjoy pure life pura vida! ❤️ For more local fun in Costa Rica, please consult me!

Active volcano, the altitude is a bit high. But you must go to Costa Rica. The scenery is really good and there are seas of clouds. You can see the Caribbean Sea when the weather is good. There is a direct bus opposite the National Grand Theatre.

Manuel Antonio National Park is the most famous national park in Costa Rica. It not only has dense rainforests, but also lives many rare wildlife, such as Monkeys, Smiling Monkeys, Raccoons, etc. You may see it here. Hiking is the best way to travel here and you will see many precious scenes that are definitely worth a visit.

Tamarindo Beach is the most beautiful beach in Nicoa, Costa Rica. The sea here is very blue, the beach is very clean and soft, it has almost not been developed by commercially, everything is so pure and primitive, it is definitely a good place to relax and play in the sea on vacation.
