Heredia
About 130 thousand people.
Heredia is a friendly city known as the City of Flowers, surrounded by green coffee farms. It has a lively university, so there are always young people around.
See the old stone tower called El Fortin in the main square, wander a real coffee plantation, and hike in the misty cloud forest of Braulio Carrillo park nearby.

Food
Heredia is coffee country, so you can watch how coffee beans grow and even taste a warm cup fresh from the farm.

Nature
The green hills above Heredia are home to cloud forests where you might spot colorful birds and playful monkeys.
