Liberia Guanacaste
Few cities or towns in Costa Rica are so attached to a long tradition as Liberia, the capital of Guanacaste, located 235 kilometers northwest of San Jose on the Inter-American. Has traditionally been the center of a vast network of cattle ranches, where the market is maintained. It has a proud provincial air, dressed in his casual city status and much less hectic than San Jose. Life here takes on a much more relaxed and reflective. Maybe it's the great metropolis of the province, but its difference with the urban business centers is obvious.
Liberia is also one of the few really attractive cities in Costa Rica, with large wooded trails and colonial buildings, including the Calle Real, the main north-south artery.
Since opening in Liberia Daniel Oduber airport, the country's second international airport, this city has become a tremendous tourist center, with a splendid and active offer of services and relaxation for visitors, who are heading to the the Peninsula of Nicoya's beaches (northern ones are less than an hour away) or to Rincon de la Vieja and Santa Rosa National Parks.
