Introducing Grecia

Centered on the incongruous, bright-red metal Catedral de la Mercedes, which was boxed up in Belgium and shipped to Costa Rica in 1897, Grecia is a modern town spiced up with a fair dash of Costa Rican folklore. The small Casa de Cultura (444 6767) has the official version, with Spanish-colonial artifacts plus articles about Grecia’s ‘Cleanest Little Town in Latin America’ award and an impressive insect collection.
