Chaverrí Oxcart Factory (Fábrica de Carretas)
Chaverrí Oxcart Factory (Fábrica de Carretas) Review
The nicest of the many stores south of town is the Chaverrí Oxcart Factory, and you can wander through the workshops in back to see the artisans in action. (Despite the name, much more is for sale here than oxcarts.) Chaverri is a good place to buy wooden crafts; nonwood products are cheaper in San José.
Las Carretas. Chaverri also runs a restaurant next door, Las Carretas, which serves a variety of local food all day until 6 pm and has a good lunch buffet. 21202. 2454-4411. www.sarchicostarica.net.
