Alajuela

The city is the second-Iargest city in Costa Rica. It was founded in 1782. The original name was Villa Hermosa, but no 18th-century architecture survives. The Juan Santamaría International Airport, serving San José, is only 2.5km southeast of Alajuela. This makes Alajuela a convenient alternative to more bustling and smoggy San José for those using the airport.
