Restuarants, cafes, shops, and dance clubs mingle well in this Spanish Colonial style complex, and any time of day or night there's bound to be some hustle and bustle. The crowd is mixed, young and old, Ticos and tourists, everyone goes to El Pueblo to dine, dance, and shop for souvenirs of Costa Rica. It's not until after 10pm that the dance clubs really get started, and then there are plenty of music venues and styles to choose from, and often live DJs.

Get there early if you want to squeeze in some shopping for classic Costa Rican souvenirs; later, when all the restaurants are closed, you can find munchies at the tiny sodas nestled between the bars and dance clubs."
