Yesterday, we took a drive into the mountains to Zarcero, a small, picturesque town noted for its organic vegetables, fruit and specialty cheese- Queso Palmito. However, Zarcero’s most popular attraction is its surreal topiary gardens. We were confronted by artist-landscaper Evangelisto Blanco’s latest inventions inspired, he says, from Celestial visions. Here we had opportunity to step through the looking glass to come upon shrubs and trees manifest as dancing animals, stylized creatures and other unique abstractions. Quite the sight.
We then took a drive further up the hills along winding roads and passed through horse and cattle country, surrounded on all sides by the greenery that is characteristic of CR.
