|
Palmar Norte and Palmar Sur are the same town on both the north and south sides of the Grande de Térraba River. Apart from being a transportation hub, this town is the center of the banana-growing industry of the Diquis Valley. Most of the services important to travellers are found in Palmar Norte.
Archaeologists have made some interesting discoveries in the Palmar area, including pre-Columbian made stone spheres. Some of the almost perfect spheres reach up to 1.5m/5ft in diameter, and are found in various places in town such as banana plantations and resident's yards. Experts are still unsure of who exactly made the stones.
