Landscape Photography: stunning beauty of Cahuita National Park in Costa Rica

phortun (74) in nature • 7 years ago

Hi there my Steemit friends and followers!

As you might already know from some of my previous posts, almost one third of the total area of Costa Rica is covered with national parks and protected areas, which is one of the highest numbers of all countries in the world.

This amazing Central American country is therefore famous for astonishing nature and abundant and extremely diverse wildlife and even though I knew all of this prior to my trip to Costa Rica, I was completely stunned and speechless when I saw all the natural beauty with my own eyes.

One of the national parks that I visited there is the Cahuita National Park, a terrestrial and marine national park found on the Caribbean coast of Costa Rica. Covering over 1,100 ha of land and 22,300 ha of the sea, Cahuita is home to hundreds of animal and plant species. Here are some photos I took there.

This is also my entry for the #landscapephotography contest hosted by @juliank.

Thanks for the fine photos, complemented by some excellent info about Costa Rica.

While the country is well-known for its amazing natural beauty, I did not know that 1/3 of its area is set aside as preserved and protected parkland. That in itself is an amazing fact

Thanks for stopping by! Oh yeah, the fact that almost 1/3 of the country is made up by national parks is amazing! And the number has actually been increasing as more and more areas are desingated to become national parks in future :) Way to go, rest of the world! :)

this is where the king of nature tourism because there are many number of natural attractions. Many interesting things that we can find in this place. Ranging from national parks, mountains, beaches or even extreme sights we can explore while in Costa Rica. I am very impressed, you can take photos very well
Thanks @phortun

No složky si zakládám celkem poctivě, takže to můžu zjistit přesně :) Ale hrubým odhadem to bude v řádech jednotek tisíců. Krásných míst je holt spousta :)
