Parque Morazán

Lonely Planet review

To the southwest of the Parque España is Parque Morazán, named for Francisco Morazán, the 19th-century general who attempted to unite the Central American nations under a single flag. Once a notorious center of prostitution, the park is now beautifully illuminated in the evenings. At its center is the Templo de Música , a concrete bandstand that serves as an unofficial symbol of San José.
