Famous 5 colones bill!

Allegory to Coffee and Bananas - Aleardo Villa - National Theatre - Costa Rica

The most famous painting of the theater is an allegory to the two most important export products of the country, coffee and bananas. Aleardo Villa ( italian painter ) was not very familiar with our country, so he made a few technical mistakes that made the painting funny and unique. The bananas in the bunch are up side down. The coffee plantations are painted at sea level, what is wrong. The coffee bushes are too small and the women are typical shobby, very elegant nord italian ladies, very different from our coffee pickers. The oxen have the yoke on their necks. Imagine the poor oxen strangled by pulling all that weight. Normally the yoke is tied up to the horns and head. Although he made some mistakes, it is a nice painting and was chosen as a motif for our 5 colones bill. The bill is out of circulation but it can be purchased outside as a collection item.

Nauyaca waterfalls horseback ride

.

If you enjoy Rancho Don Gilberto’s Horseback Riding, Tocori waterfalls and botanical adventure close to the hills of Manuel Antonio, then you are ready for your next horse back riding experience – a trip to Nauyaca Waterfalls. This full-day experience starts with a trip through breathtaking mountainous countryside between Manuel Antonio and Dominical, and comes with many “perks”. Stop first for an authentic Tico style breakfast at a local Rancho along the way, then meander through the majestic tropical forests and stunning vistas of the mountains of San Isidro.

Once on horseback, get close to Costa Rica’s bio-diverse flora and fauna as you ride towards an unforgettable experience – the Nauyaca Waterfalls. Dip in the deep pools of crystal clear, pristine mountain waters as cascading 120 foot waterfalls dance over your head. What an unforgettable experience for individuals, families and even large groups. Jump into the refreshing pools, and even splash your bilingual guides and naturalists before you and your guests head on back to the local Rancho for another gastronomical experience Tico style – a hot and hearty lunch.

And please make sure you thank your Costa Rican family hosts before you head on back home to the tranquil serenity of Manuel Antonio. Once again, come for adventure, get an education, and leave a changed person. Our tropical jungle is a jewel to share with guests and nature lovers from all over the world. By your visit, you are helping us preserve that jewel and spread the word of a balance of ecology and tourism that works. Thanks for visiting our country, and we hope that you will come back as well.
