Costa Rica is the only country in the world with no army and no arrangement for defense with a larger country. Instead of funding defense, they invest in education.

A Pictorial Tour of Quizur

Front Patio of Main House and Amphitheatre Entrance
Quizur served as a second campus for the United Nations University for Peace (UPeace). housed visiting professors and provided an amphitheater for large events.

The property was shared with the Academy for Peace of Costa Rica (APCR), which trained public school teachers in the Connection Practice, a skill for meeting challenges in life,

The APCR was a project of Rasur Foundation International (RFI), a US nonprofit. Now circumstances have changed and selling the property will provided needed funds to RFI, UPeace and RFI’s founder, Rita Marie Johnson. So, in purchasing this property, you would receive all its benefits and support those who are working for a more peaceful world.

Quizur hasn’t been used by these nonprofits for several years and is not in the same condition that it was previously. Most of the pictures below were taken when the property was in its prime. However, the structures are still solid. It mostly needs repairs, paint and flowers.
