[edit] Understand

The Valley of Perez Seledon / San Isidrio de General is one of the most intensive cultivated areas of Costa Rica. Several indigenouse communities, like Terraba or Boruca, inhabit and cultivate land in this region.

Due to land concentration and extensive monoculture of especially Pineapple plantations this region is one of the poorest of Costa Rica.[1]

The "Costanera Sur" (Southern Costa Road) between Dominical and Quepos is not in good conditions and most of the visitors comming from Central Valley come via the Panamerican Highway. On the main roads between Perez Zeledon and Paso Canoas TRACOPA runs several busses which conect as well to San José and the Central Valley.
