一直听说 Costa Rica 有自然风光,热带雨林, 今年两个礼拜春假, 就腐败一下. 我们是自由行. 定票找旅馆都是网上来. 我打字很慢的, 就抄用一点英文吧:
Few travel destinations have the vast spectrum of stunning landscaes and exotic wildlife offered by Costa Rica, a tiny central Amercian country lodged between great oceans. From misty rain forests and spewing volcanoes to rugged coastlines and marine reserves. Costa Rica is home to some truly mind-blowing national parks.
Costa Rica is located on the Central American isthmus, 10° North of the equator and 84° West of the Prime Meridian. It borders both the Caribbean Sea (to the east) and the North Pacific Ocean (to the west), with a total of 1,290 kilometres (800 mi) of coastline, 212 km (132 mi) on the Caribbean coast and 1,016 km (631 mi) on the Pacific
Costa Rica also borders Nicaragua to the north (309 km or 192 mi of border) and Panama to the south-southeast (639 km or 397 mi of border). In total, Costa Rica comprises 51,100 square kilometres (19,700 sq mi) plus 589 square kilometres (227 sq mi) of territorial waters.
The highest point in the country is Cerro Chirripó, at 3,820 metres (12,500 ft), and is the fifth highest peak in Central America. The highest volcano in the country is the Irazú Volcano (3,431 m or 11,260 ft). The largest lake in Costa Rica is Lake Arenal.
Costa Rica also comprises several islands. Cocos Island (24 square kilometres/9.3 square miles) stands out because of its distance from continental landmass, 300 mi (480 km) from Puntarenas, but Calero Island is the largest island of the country (151.6 square kilometres/58.5 square miles).
Costa Rica protects 23% of its national territory within the Protected Areas system. It also possesses the greatest density of species in the world

金－博物馆- Its architecture brings to mind all the warmth and comform of a bank vault. The museum is a favorite of tourists as the glittering collection of pre-Columbian gold is well presented. A small exhibit details the history of the Costa Rican currency.
Playa Sámara is a long, broad beach on a gently curved horseshoe-shape bay. Unlike most of the other beaches along this stretch of the Pacific coast, the water here is usually calm and perfect for swimming because an offshore island and rocky headlands break up most of the surf. On weekends, in particular, Sámara can get crowded and rowdy. Still, the calm waters and steep cliffs on the far side of the bay make this a very attractive spot, and the beach is so long that the crowds are usually well dispersed.

谢谢你喜欢. Costa Rica 是自然美. 我们专挑不是"旅游胜地"的地方, 否则就好像去"Miami"一样.
