Visiting Panama
Panama acts as a bridge between Central and South America, while Panama City connects the most modern elements of Latin America's present and future with its colonial past.
Panama's skyline of glittering steel-and-glass skyscrapers and dozens of cranes highlights the wealth and strength of Panama's economy, led by the Panama Canal and its International Banking Center. Yet the old-town sector ("Casco Viejo") of the city dates back to 1673, and serves as a living reminder of the city's colonial days, when Panama was a stop-over point for traders, conquistadores, and pirates. And a few kilometers away from the city centerstand the ruins of the original settlement, dating back to 1519.
