Costa Rica, a peninsula country steeped in the mystique of Pirates of the Caribbean, has too many ancient secrets that we don't know and too many beautiful landscapes that we are not familiar with. Before finding a better name, let's call it heaven.
Costa Rica does not have many islands, but with a narrow distribution of its territory and the sea behind the ocean, we may wish to consider it a peninsular country. There is so much to be fun about the country, such as the fact that it was the world's first democracy without an army, such as the fact that for a long time pirates in the Caribbean were active here and buried looted treasures intentionally or unintentionally, such as the history of indians and Aztecs.
As a national of a small country, Costa Ricans are happy, and here Mencius's ideal of "small country widows" is flashed. Politics is almost superfluous here, and if necessary, it can be dismantled like an army. People grow bananas and coffee here and supply the world with the fruits of their labor. There are 600,000 hectares of forest here, and children receive cultural education at the level of developed countries.
Cocos Island, the only tropical island in the eastern Pacific Ocean with rainforest, is the perfect end to God's campaign on Genesis next to Costa Rica and was inscribed on the World Heritage List by the United Nations in 1997. This 24-square-kilometer island is unique in terms of topography, currents, species, and history. Abundant freshwater resources and food supplies attracted pirates to this place for a period of time, among them William Davis, William Thompson and Bonito, whose treasures have not yet been found. The pirates' performance here is so impressive that it is agreed that the treasures on Cocos Island are among the most treasured in the world.
Perhaps we should admit that Cocos Island does not need any foreign treasures to add to its charm, it is the gold and jade of the world, which cannot be removed, inexhaustible and inexhaustible. The island's terrain is complex, with tropical plants bearing fruit everywhere. The abundant precipitation brought by the air currents of the northern Equatorial Bay forms a river on the island, flowing to the sea at a lower point, and from the cliffs more than 100 meters high along the coast, the water cascades down into the blue sea, splashing white jade-like splashes and roaring.
Come to Cocos Island and be sure not to miss its underwater world. In this long blue sea, countless rare marine creatures are swimming - pink corals are as fat as arthropods, rash spotted fish collide with dark green seagrasses, and large orange fish dance... The warm and moist sea is like a mother, giving birth to countless people of the sea.
