Bar y Restaurante La Puerta del Sol, Cartago, Costa Rica

La basílica de los ángeles. La Puerta del Sol is located on the left side, across the street.

La Puerta del Sol. 2nd floor has rooms for rent.

The Urinal.

La Puerta del Sol is one of the most famous bars in Cartago, given its strategic location next to la Basílica de Los Angeles. Approximately one million people walk to this church every august 2, hoping that this will be sufficient to get their lives back on track. Our guess is that a lot of these people have had a meal and a beer at La Puerta del Sol upon arrival.

Nevertheless, we must report that the food was a disappointment and the beer expensive. Add to that a non-smoking policy, and the sum is a severely unrecommendable place. For good places to visit in Cartago, see our report from the alternative pilgrimage arranged by IWCRP back in 2008
