Escazu is an ideal tourist destination in Costa Rica. Its center is where the municipal government, that operates all the smaller towns around it, is, although with the growth of San Rafael, it may end up being the tail that wags the dog! Escazu was an early colonial settlement that was operating long before the present capital, San Jose, existed. It was formed around a cross-ways in indian trails through the area and it is said that the word ‘escazu' in an early indian language, means ‘resting place', where weary indian travelers stopped for a while and exchanged news from far regions of the country.
Old Escazu has no where near the modern shopping facilities that San Rafael de Escazu has. It has simple stores, the Saturday morning farmers' market and many other facilities. Here we give you quite a few street scenes, different shops and, of course, the farmers' market.
