Parque de Diversiones, Amusement park in San José, Costa Rica
Parque de Diversiones is an amusement park in San José where families enjoy rides and entertainment spread across different zones. The facility features roller coasters, water attractions, and game areas designed for various age groups.
The park was established in 1981 to generate funds for a children's hospital. Since its founding, it has grown and added new attractions to serve more visitors and expand its entertainment options.
The park operates under the motto 'healthy children help sick children,' directing profits toward pediatric healthcare support that visitors contribute to indirectly when they visit.
Visitors get the most from their time by checking opening hours and arriving early to avoid longer waits at popular attractions. The park has restaurants, shops, and restrooms distributed throughout the different zones.
The Torbellino, a wild mouse roller coaster, arrived at the park in 2018 bringing a new type of thrill ride. This coaster stands out for its sharp turns that make passengers feel sudden sideways movements.
