Cataratas de Costa Rica

Costa Rica

En Costa Rica, decenas de manantiales de montaña, arroyos y ríos serpentean por el bosque; y con tanta agua dulce, Costa Rica ha logrado satisfacer una parte importante de sus necesidades energéticas a través de la generación de energía hidroeléctrica. A medida que los ríos recorren su camino al mar a través de terrenos exuberantes, cientos de cascadas se pueden encontrar en toda la selva y las zonas montañosas. Numerosas cascadas son desconocidas o permanecen cerradas al público; pero muchas de las más impresionantes conforman excelentes destinos para una excursión de un día y darse un refrescante baño por la tarde.

We found Costa Rica to be really beautiful. I loved the flowering plants everywhere, but the wildlife is the main reason we went. We didn't see monkeys in every tree or even toucans up close, but we did see them from a distance. We also saw lots of colorful birds in the National Forests that we have never seen before.
