Panama City has a rich history and is probably the most interesting capital of all Central American countries. Apart from its Canal, a masterpiece of engineering inaugurated in 1914, it offers the old city "Panama Vieja" built in the 16th century by the Spanish Conquistadors, the "Casco Antiguo" with Spanish and French architecture and inspiration, and the modern downtown. It is also an excelent hub for day tours to the Caribean side (San Blas, San Lorenzo, Portobello), or to visit the native tribes (Emberas), and for nature expeditions. You can combine your Panama City trip with other areas of Panama such as Bocas del Toro, Boquete, Boca Chica, or also with a trip to neighboring Costa Rica!
