    When you walk up or down the steps within the Jade Museum you overlook this plaza. It has an interesting layout with many steps within the plaza.  more »

    This plaza is between the Jade Museum and the National Museum of Costa Rica. It is quite a large plaza and has a magnificent statue of Don Pepe.  more »

    This is a historic place in San Jose downtown. It was the last army facility in Costa Rica before army abolition. Is like a big square where you can find handcrafts, a nice view, public benches and kids running around.

    Very busy... Some smells nearly made me gag. The cars and buses don't care if you're crossing the road, get out of the way!
