It’s hard to capture the beauty, the breadth, depth, width, height of the gorgeous vistas of Costa Rica in photographs. It has the most stunning, awesome, love-inspiring views! The perfect cure for the blues! 🙂
But here is a collection some of my favorite scenes. I invite you to pause for a second to take it in, imagine it in real life, the depth that is missed. The quiet. Feel the beauty.
Road to Monte VerdeTurrialba Volcano from Route 10Somewhere between Rio Conejo and Los Santos, probably Route 222. Endless coffee fields.Route 239 between Puriscal and ParritaSide Road off Route 3Corralillos area (I think!).View from Turrialtico restaurantRoute 703 between Zarcero and San RamnoView Casa del Cafe Route 3Road between Acosta and Parrita, Route 301, dry season.View from Purisil, coming out of Tapanti, Route 408.

OK. Enough! Even I’m getting tired. 🙂
Many of these views will be familiar to those who ride motorcycles in Costa Rica, for there re only a few select “stopping” areas on most roads. Since almost all of them lack shoulders, taking photos is quite a challenge here.
