| Parque Sabana (Sabana Park) |
| The only park of any real scale in San José, this favorite weekend getaway for Josefinos used to be the national airport (the old terminal now houses the Museo de Arte Costarricense). Today, it's a focus for sports and recreation and one of the few places within San José where you may jog without being hassled by traffic. Sabana Park contains both the Estadio Nacional (on the northwest corner) and the National Gymnasium (southeast corner), which features an Olympic-size swimming pool. There are also basketball, tennis, and volleyball courts, a baseball diamond, a soccer field, and tree-lined paths for jogging and walking. Even fishing folks are catered to. A small lake on the south side is stocked with fish, and fishing is permitted. And a small hill has been piled up from Sabana (Flatlands) for kite flyers. The park entrance is at the end of Paseo Colón. Take the Sabana-Cementerio bus, which leaves from Calle 7 and Avenida Central. |
