Best Destination
At the International Tourism
Fair (FITUR in Spanish), held in
Spain, the U.S. Travel Weekly
chose Costa Rica as the best
destination in Latin America.
The variety of attractions and
the many chances a visitor has
here to enjoy the best of
vacations were among the reasons
to bestow the award on Costa
Rica, whose competitors included
Panama, Chile, Peru, Argentina,
and Brazil.
The Costa Rican Minister of
Tourism ,Ricardo Benavides,
pointed out that the best
feature of the award is that it
results from the choice of the
magazine’s 140,000 readers, who
belong to the U.S. tourist
industry.
The readers also remarked that
Costa Rica is one of the most
saleable destinations in Central
and South America because of its
mild tropical weather, natural
and adventure attractions,
exotic sites, and the warmth of
its inhabitants.
