Barva de Heredia

Downtown Barva de Heredia
Traveling up from Heredia you reach the town of Barva.  Barva is a typical Costa Rican town with many home with thick walls made of adobe with roofs made of red barrel tile.  This is a quaint town with not much English spoken but definately a relaxing place to live.  There is a church in the middle of town with a park across the street.  There are a number of small sodas (small restaurants) and pulperias in town.

For shopping one would go back down to Heredia which is only 10 minute back down the road.  There are several large shopping malls and supermarkets available in Heredia.  Barva is also only about 30 minutes to Escazu and San Jose.
