Limon Costa Rica

Limon Costa Rica is the most sparsely populated, least economically developed and most culturally distinct of the seven provinces of our country. Many tourists and locals say that traveling to Limon Costa Rica is like entering another country. It has always followed a different course of development with more influence from transnational companies or the Caribbean than from the central government or other national institutions. Limon Costa Rica was founded mainly by Afro Caribbean laborers that were brought over to the Atlantic coast to work on the railway system construction. Once the railway was finished many of these workers stayed on banana plantations in Limon Costa Rica. During the late nineteenth century and throughout the twentieth, the Afro-Caribbean settlers were joined by migrating Hispanics as well as a sizable Asian immigrant population. Limon Costa Rica boasts beautiful architecture that you will only find here. In Limon Costa Rica there are countless cultural activities, natural hiking grounds, charming hotels, fantastic bistros and tours available.
