Heredia: Attractions and more...
Heredia is an ideal getaway for those who wish to spend some time communing with Mother Nature. Also, there are a number of activities for those seeking the thrill of adventure.
One of the biggest tourist attractions in this region is Volcan Barva, inside the Braulio Carrillo National Park. This is one of the few volcanoes in the world that you can actually climb into.
The Braulio Carrillo and Tapanti National Parks are also ideal destinations for nature lovers. Here you can observe exotic wildlife such as the quetzal bird, pumas and tapirs. The Butterfly Farm and Zoo Avenue are also popular tourist destinations.
Those who want to enjoy their vacation at a more leisurely pace can camp in little fire-warmed cottages near the reserves and enjoy the lush foliage.
The city of Heredia, which is the capital of this province and 10 km north of San Jose, is an excellent starting point for exploring this region.
