About
Turrialba:
This attractive little
town 53km (33 miles) east of San José is best known as the starting
point and home base for many popular white-water rafting trips.
However, it's also worth a visit if you have an interest in pre-Columbian
history or tropical botany. Guayabo National Monument is one of Costa
Rica's only pre-Columbian sites that has been excavated and is open to
the public. It's located 12 miles northeast of Turrialba and preserves
a town site that dates from between 1000 B.C. and A.D. 1400.
Archaeologists believe that Guayabo might have supported a population
of as many as 10,000 people, but there is no clue yet to why the city
was eventually abandoned only shortly before the Spanish arrived in
the New World. While you're in Turrialba, you might want to spend a
little time at Turrialtico a rustic yet beautiful open-air restaurant
and small hotel high on a hill overlooking the Turrialba Valley. The
view from here is one of the finest in the country, with lush greenery
far below and volcanoes in the distance. Websites about
