European charm and Central American vitality combine to provide an interesting blend of old and new, making San José a fascinating Costa Rican city. Interact with friendly locals, investigate impressive European architecture, enjoy cultural arts and perfect your Spanish language skills. Several of San José’s impressive public structures date back to Spanish settlement from as early as the 1700s. Experience some of the best of San José ’s cultural activities and see interesting buildings near the large Plaza de la Cultura. Here, admire the neo-classical architecture of the Teatro Nacional. Reserve seats for outstanding cultural events at this national theatre or tour the opulent interior decorated with murals, paintings and sculptures. Nearby, visit three exceptional museums. See dazzling indigenous pieces in the Pre-Columbian Gold Museum. The Museo del Jade has plenty of jade as well as anthropological artefacts. Learn about Costa Rican history and natural science at the Museo Nacional, another example of striking architecture. Costa Rica is a popular location for language learners looking for immersion in a Spanish-speaking region, either through formal training or casual interaction with local residents. Sign up for one of many structured programmes or test your Spanish skills in restaurants in the different barrios of San José. You’re sure to get a friendly smile if you order gallo pinto (rice and beans) for breakfast just as the locals do. When you need a break from Spanish, go to the restaurants and country clubs of the western Escasu barrio with many English-speaking expats or visit the relatively new Chinatown area. In March, the city hosts the Transitarte Festival. Enjoy pleasant summer weather and travel from one urban park to another to enjoy music, crafts, workshops and art. Reach San José via Juan Santamaría International Airport, 10 miles (17 kilometres) northwest of the city centre. Use public buses and taxis to get around the city. Many of the main landmarks are in the downtown or “el centro” area, easy to walk from one to another. ### Where to stay in San José ![Default Image](https://images.trvl-media.com/media/content/expus/graphics/deals/TE_Clouds_card_r1.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=350&h=192&q=medium) ### La California 4/5(1 area review) Check out the restaurants, shopping and museums while spending some time in La California.

Beautiful church and buzzing square. Didn't really have any more time to explore more, very friendly people. Apart from the taxi driver lol ### 4/5 - Good Verified traveller Really busy traffic. Driving is not for the faint hearted. ### 2/5 - Disappointing Mikolaj Not a city I would recommend you visit. Costa Rica is all about nature. San Jose is not pretty, does not have any proper cultural bits to visit. Don't waste your time!!! ### 3/5 - Okay Verified traveller I love Costa Rica for the amazing abundance and diversity of its nature, and for the warmth of its people. But traffic choked and uninspiring architecture make San Jose far from my favorite Latin American capital city. ### 3/5 - Okay Verified traveller We mostly used San Hose as a hub whilst travelling to see other parts of Costa Rica. The city may be up and coming but it is still very much a locals place. Some nice restaurants but you have to seek them out. ### 4/5 - Good Verified traveller We stayed three times for five days in total as we used it as a central hub during our tour of Costa Rica, visiting six other locations. It has some great coffee shops and great little cafes. Go to the 1147 Cafe, Hotel Aranjuez, outstanding food. ## Cities near San José ![Alajuela](https://mediaim.expedia.com/destination/1/4ed394581e7f25e5b2cfb3e59e0b5532.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=512&h=288&q=medium) ### Alajuela [](https://expedia.co.uk/Alajuela.dx11901) ![Photo by Garrett Britton ](https://mediaim.expedia.com/destination/2/024d01ea11859d51eb5974f3d6d66efc.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=512&h=288&q=medium) ### San Antonio de Belen [](https://expedia.co.uk/San-Antonio-De-Belen.dx177814) ![Photo by Nataraj Ankinakatte](https://mediaim.expedia.com/destination/2/3b14c7126bfdc9c5b675c3814a9346f7.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=512&h=288&q=medium) ### Guapiles [](https://expedia.co.uk/Guapiles.dx180434) ![Photo by Sha ](https://mediaim.expedia.com/destination/2/25f8cfc574dcb590abd98fa90a9bed8b.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=512&h=288&q=medium) ### Escazu [](https://expedia.co.uk/Escazu.dx500184) ### Other places like San José ## Explore a world of travel with Expedia -
