  1. Ecomuseo de las Minas de Abangares

    OK, so the terms ‘eco’ and ‘mining’ don’t exactly go together like bees and honey to us either, but it’s still worth visiting the small Ecomuseo de las Minas de Abangares, which has a few photographs and models depicting the old mining practices of the area. In the grounds outside the museum are a picnic area and children’s play area, and there’s a good system of trails that pass by old mining artifacts, such as bits of railway. There’s also good bird-watching (and iguana-ing) along the trails, and monkeys are occasionally sighted.

  2. Restaurante Los Mangos

    The nicest restaurant in town (we know it’s run-down, but there aren’t exactly a lot of options here) is on the main road, and does your standard mix of casados, ceviche and fried chicken, and it’ll get you liquored up at night.
