If you ever wanted a true Costa Rican experience, than a visit at the local market is what is needed. Although San Jose has the biggest one in Costa Rica, it is not the safest option. We suggest visiting the local market in downtown Heredia, located only 25 minutes from downtown San Jose. Here is where you will find the lowest prices on fruits and goods, and is usually the top choice for those who make less money.
