What country is San José Costa Rica?
At the beginning of the 19th century, San José was only a small insignificant village, about 25 km from the then capital Cartago. After the capital status changed several times between Cartago, San José and the now fourth largest city of Alajuela, the first elected president of Costa Rica, Juan Mora Fernández, moved the capital permanently to San José in the early 1820s. This meant that the small village was facing a great upswing.
