• Poas Volcano National Park - Poas Volcano is the nearest to San Jose City, the capital of Costa Rica. Just an hour away, it offers an incredible opportunity to stand at the edge of an active volcano’s crater.
• Fabrica de Carretas Eloy Alfaro - The oxcart is a national emblem of Costa Rica, playing a significant role in the country’s history by transporting coffee beans and other goods to both local and distant markets and ports. Beginning in the 1840s, most rural roads were quite rough, making the oxcart the only mode of transportation for families, even though journeys could take weeks.

These oxcarts are intricately carved and typically hand-painted with vibrant colors. The tradition of painting oxcarts is a cherished Costa Rican custom passed down through generations. Today, most oxcarts in Costa Rica serve as decorative pieces and symbols of the country in celebrations and parades. The largest and oldest oxcart factory is located in Sarchi. The Joaquin Chaverri Oxcart Factory, established in 1902, is regarded as the birthplace of oxcart craftsmanship in Costa Rica.

• Fabrica de Carretas Joaquin Chaverri - Carretas Chaverri is one of the largest souvenir shops in Sarchi and a pioneer in oxcart production. Here, visitors can admire local art and purchase a variety of beautiful souvenirs.

Sarchi Norte and Sarchi Sur are renowned as the most famous craft centers in Costa Rica.

The city boasts over 200 shops and small factories, many of which are family-run businesses specializing in woodworking. They create wooden bowls, tableware, folding furniture, wooden and leather rocking chairs, and a wide array of souvenir crafts. The most sought-after items are the intricately painted “ox carts,” which historically transported coffee from the Central Valley to the Pacific coast port. Today, Sarchí is home to the world’s largest ox cart. Sarchí furniture is celebrated internationally for its design and quality, making it a true national icon.
