CAPITAL CITY WITH CONTRAST
The metropolis with a population of millions and capital city of Panama, Panama City, offers incredibly contrastive sights with its highrises, ruins, and colonial settings. The ruins area is known as Panama Vieja and is proof of the first settlement in the area, founded in 1519. In 1671, the notorious pirate Henry Morgan foresaw the opportunity and wealth of the city and levelled it. Today, you can wander amidst the scattered old foundations of houses, stone walls and churches – an interesting journey into the past. The colonists built up the city along a spit that leads into the Bay of Panama. Despite rusted out street cars and façades, the historic part of the city, Casco Viejo, has retained its historic distinctiveness and has been named a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The historic area is the location of the cathedral in the Plaza de la Independencia, the National Theatre, cloister ruins, the San José church with its gilded altar, as well as strongholds and fortress walls, from which one can look over to the skyline of the modern capital city.
A MODERN METROPOLIS
The modern part of Panama City is comparable to those in large cities around the world. Skyscrapers, financial districts and office complexes mark this part of the city. Chic bars, cafés and restaurants also abound here. Thanks to the Panama Canal and the flow of goods that pass through it, the city is a shopping paradise where bargain hunters can find anything that the heart desires.
