History of Esparza The second oldest city in Costa Rica, Esparza was founded by Spanish explorers in the year 1574.

Other attractions of this city are the Catholic Temple, which dates back to colonial times; the Cambalache Bridge, where the railroad that went to the Pacific used to pass; or the commercial area it has, so that tourists and residents of the city can buy local Costa Rican products at the fresh fruit and vegetable markets that are established every Saturday in the city.
