This province on the Central Plateau is known as the Land of the Flowers with a landscape full of picturesque little villages, old churches, adobe houses, shady plazas and, as you may guess , wonderful displays of flora and fauna: orchids, bromeliads and mosses, among others.

 

 

The Braulio Carrillo National Park is also a highlight in this region, where the Rain Forest Aerial Tram can take you through the park and allow you to see in a unique way the most splendid reserve of virgin forest, with minimum disturbance to the environment.
