When is the best time to go to Costa Rica to see a traditional festival in San Jose?

Festivals are a vital part of Costa Rican culture. They are mostly religious in nature due to its being a Catholic country. ---quote--- Best: Dec-April.

Cool, dry but crowded season. Good: Nov, May. A little damp but far fewer visitors.

Bad: May to mid-Nov is the wet season, though it usually only rains for part of the day and waterfalls are spectacular. Festivals: ----------- Jan 14, Santo Cristo de Esquipulas day, San José and other places. Religious activities, fairs, dances, games.

March, International Arts Festival, San José. 1st week of Dec, Light Festival, San José. Parade of decorated carts and festive lighting.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
