Photo Parador - Cinta Costera
Tourist attraction
👍👍 Very nice place to take a walk, ride a bike or just enjoy in the views of the skyscrapers and Pacific ocean.
The whole area is maintained daily and looks nice and tidy.
You can get a refreshing "rapsado" at every corner and later in the evening you can even grab something to eat.
Recommended.

Metropolitan Natural Park Visitor Center

👍👍 A relatively easy hike on well-marked trails. $4 per person, and you get a wrist tag. The young man at the entrance office was pleasant and spoke English.
The butterfly house was closed for maintenance (July 1, 2021) but we could see some butterflies flying around inside.
We started on the trail tha...

Independence Square
Park
👍👍 The heart of Casco Viejo! Beautiful and full of activities and performances. Traditional dancers and artists are there to share their art. It should be a pedestrian sector b/c it gets crowded by cars and buses. Don’t try to get there to park like too many and find a public parking and walk!
