On my first visit to Costa Rica in 1989, I went on a tour of an Oxfart Factory in the town of Sarchi. In the late 19th century Oxfart were used to transport bananas and coffee and bananas to the port city of Limon. From Limon they were exported around the world. The Oxfart were hand painted by artisans in Sarchi with colorful designs. I got to witness that tradition and view some beautiful work there.
