It was not until 1563 that the Spanish permanent settlement of Cartago was established in the cooler, fertile central highlands. The area remained a colony for some two and a half centuries. In 1821, Costa Rica became one of several Central American provinces that jointly delcared their independence from Spain. Since the late 19th century, only two brief periods of violence have marred the country's democratic development. Costa Rica has expanded its economy to include strong technology and tourism industries.

A wonderful country to visit or to collect. We recommend you stop in at the Philatelic Section at the main post office in San Jose. Attached is a surprising large museum of postal history.
Stamps of Costa Rica are very popular throughout the world. A stable government, conservative Costa Rican stamp issuing policies and no overseas agents for stamp sales, make for a winning combination.
Costa Rica stamps are not promoted, they are produced for postal purposes. There are scarce Costa Rica stamp sets, but few great rarities. A complete stamp collection is in reach of most collectors.
Recent Costa Rica stamp issues are harder to find than those of fifty years ago. Few dealers have the funds to stock world wide stamps, and Costa Rica is often overlooked.
Flowers, Orchids and Bird stamps have international appeal. Tourism is popular with travel to the Atlantic and Pacific beaches. Visitors often want to collect stamps from places they travel to and that they like. We believe Costa Rica stamps will continue to find wide collecting interest .
