Costa Rica – Natural Attractions
Costa Rica is a resort country with a total of 74 resorts located on its territory. Lush greenery, mountains and ocean – that’s what you should come here for. The country’s main attractions are: national resorts, mountains and underwater caves, waterfalls, picturesque valleys and volcanoes. More than 25% of the country’s territory are occupied by government-protected natural parks.
The first attraction is Arenal Volcano – the most famous active young volcano in Costa Rica. All in all, there are about 120 volcanoes located on the country’s territory, with 70 active ones. Arenal is a high cone-shaped mountain, which is illuminated at night. Indians thought the volcano was a sacred animal. It was very active prior to the XVI century. Then in 1968, after approximately 400 years of dormancy, the volcano erupted again. Nowadays tourists from all over the world come to La Fortuna de San Carlos, an Indian settlement situated by the foot of the volcano. However, sometimes the mountain is all covered with clouds and is hard to see. There are also lots of swimming pools, ponds and waterfalls found by the Arenal. Tourists will also like local mini zoo with tropical butterflies, snakes and other animals.
Poas Volcano is one of the country’s most visited volcanoes. Its crater is 1,5 km big and is one of the largest craters in the world. Entrance to the national park is closed during the volcano eruption. You should definitely observe a beautiful Botos lagoon located in one of the local craters.
