Costa Rica celebrates its Independence Day today! Costa Rica celebrates its Independence Day today! Formally breaking free of Spanish rule in 1821, the holiday is celebrated with parades, festivals, wearing traditional garbs, and enjoying Costa Rican delicacies.

This is a re-enactment of how the news of independence from Spain made its way through the different countries, and it culminates on the 15th by reaching the Costa Rican city of Cartago.
