Exploring Costa Rica as a Herbalist: A Day at El Arca Jardín Botánico

If you’re ever in Costa Rica, El Arca Jardín Botánico is a must-visit. This massive and beautifully curated botanical garden features medicinal plants, aromatic herbs, themed terraces, and even a farm-to-table restaurant. I was excited about how interactive and sensory the experience was: tasting fresh herbs while breathing in their aromas. I left feeling deeply connected to the healing power of plants in their natural environment.
