Costa Rica stands as the most visited nation in the Central American region, with 1.9 million foreign visitors in 2007,
which translates into a relatively high expenditure per tourist
of $1000 per trip.. Most of the tourists come from the U.S.
and Canada (46%), and the E.U. (16%).
Tourism now earns more foreign exchange than bananas and coffee combined.
It's almost impossible to find a guidebook to Costa Rica that doesn't refer to the country as the "Switzerland of the Americas"
Costa Ricans themselves like to clime similarities between the two countries. Therefore, even though Costa Rica is as much like Switzerland as a poodle is like a beagle, I suppose this book is obliged to make the same comparison. At first glance, the only thing the two countries seem to have
in common is that they are similar is size. But Costa Rica is lushly tropical and continuously swathed is luxurious green vegetarian - a place where coffee, sugarcane, and mangoes thrive and where snow never falls. It's the exact opposite of Switzerland, with its snowcapped peaks and barren, rocky terrain. Yet the more one travels in Costa Rica, the more apparent are the parallels with Switzerland. Both are peaceful, progressive countries where democracy and stability are hallmarks. Although Costa Rica's tropical beaches are incongruent with Swiss, terrain,the higher mountains rival the rugged beauty of the Alps.
The lake area around the Arenal Volcano could easily pass for parts of Switzerland – during the Swiss summertime, at any rate.
