    i wonder if someone can tell me where the “new” mall in Grecia is & whether or not Sarchi is “open for business” on Sundays…

    The Grecia Mall is next to the MaxiBodega both of which are on the outskirts of Grecia on the road to Sarchi and Naranjo. If you know where Rojas y Monge, the big ferreteria, is the Mall is half a kilometer past that in the direction of Sarchi.

    I’m pretty sure you’ll find many things open in Sarchi on Sundays. Are you looking for something in particular?

    Thanks, David. We just want to look @ some of the Sarchi furniture & maybe a few souvenir type things for the kids that are coming for Christmas.

    There should be plenty of furniture stores open on Sunday. If there’s something special you want, we have a line on a couple of custom furniture makers who have treated us well.

    Our preferred souvenir store is the one on the outskirts of Sarchi as you’re headed for Naranjo. It’s on the right, past the soccer field and the gas station and has a huge, rotating, oxcart wheel outside.

    And if it’s lunchtime, the Finca restaurant is a good choice. Drive right behind that big rotating wheel and down a one-lane drive. It’s good, reasonably priced, has a nice view, and is away from the traffic noise.

    A good “road trip” today. We took your advice, got excellent deals (including 2 Sarchi rockers) at the souvenir shop you suggested & took your recommendation for lunch @ the Finca. Nice view, reasonable prices, excellent food…huge portions..thank you.:)
