CENTRAL VALLEY
The Central Valley's ideal climate is a blessing in a country that can be drudgingly hot, especially during summer months. Most visitors spend a very short time in the Central Valley -typically two days max- before moving on to the country's more popular destinations. However, other visitors often commute from the Central Valley to attractions in the surrounding highlands, where active volcanoes (Poas and Irazu) and the Braulio Carrillo National Park are the highlights. Lush and green with many plantations, farming is one of the main occupations here, as the soil in the area is very fertile and rich in minerals from the presence of the two active volcanoes. Over two-thirds or 70% of the population resides in San Jose.
