National Theater in San Jose

This beautiful theater was financed by a tax on coffee, and completed in 1897. It was designed for everyone to access music and dance.

See the statue in the lobby, the interior of Theater, first floor, and the Ballroom/meeting room on second floor with beautifully painted ceilings. The painted figures seemed to look in different directions as we walked around the room.

After the tour, we went shopping for groceries. Rain was pouring down, but we had to go! Tomorrow will be an early start, so we need sustenance.Leer más
