About

Museo de Arte y Diseño Contemporáneo, on Costa Rica, occupies WWPH+57V, Av. 3, Calle 15. Costado Oeste de la Biblioteca Nacional. Antigua Fanal San José CR, Av. 3, San José, 10101, Costa Rica.

First-time visitors should note the opening hours of Mo-Sa 09:30-17:00, which leave Sundays free for other plans. A 4.5 out of 5 average across 519 reviews places it among the more visited addresses in the capital. San José anchors the venue, and Tamarindo, Santa Teresa, Manuel Antonio, Jacó, Puerto Viejo, La Fortuna and Monteverde sit elsewhere on the map, so a stop here pairs naturally with a city day.

The website at http://www.madc.cr/ carries the venue's own information for anyone planning ahead.

Ferries cross the Gulf of Nicoya to the Nicoya Peninsula, and small aircraft serve coastal destinations, which makes combining the capital with the coast practical. A casado, the set lunch of rice, beans, plantain, salad and a choice of meat or fish, is a reliable midday option. Spanish is the official language, and Costa Rican speech is known for vos and the phrase pura vida.
