Sure to be the most cosmopolitan capital in Central America.Gateway to Latin America and a vibrant destination in its own right, Panama City is a thriving center for international banking and trade. Scattered throughout the city lie colonial neighborhoods, monolithic skyscrapers and windswept ruins of old Spanish settlements.
Visitors to Panama City are often amazed by the colonial district of Casco Viejo, a dilapidated neighborhood of historic buildings and cobbled streets reminiscent of old Havana. Crumbling on the edge of the sea for decades, Casco Viejo is priming itself to charm and enchant visitors once more.
