Costa Rican Craftsmanship
The Costa Rica people love the extraordinarily beautiful nature of their country. 
Thus we have that almost inevitable special mixture spirit, material and Creole culture which we call craftsmanship and which shows its wide range of nuances and national features ranging from the reproduction of pre-Colombian objects to modern personal objects or simply decorative ones, including the traditional oxcart which put Costa Rica on the road to progress.
And it is here where we can most easily show the innate skill of the tico in offering with simplicity his love for art and the healthy pride of being Costa Rican. As a complement to the small craft shops scattered all over the country, there are in the capital places given over the exhibition and sale of craftsmanship. These centers are must on the tourist’s program, and also fulfill the role of providing entertainment for the people of the country.
