While much of the city is modern and shiny, the old part of Panama City offers an entirely different experience: narrow streets, a wide variety of architecture, and several landmarks that have withstood time.
As my bus struggled getting through the traffic, I at one point decided to just leave the bus and walk. A few streets on, I caught a taxi with a driver who knew his job well. He was a master at taking routes that eventually took me to the old city of Panama. In the end, he tried to convince me that it was too dangerous to walk around the old town, and offered to drive me around. I refused, and I started walking the streets of the Casco Antiguo, or old city, of Panama. Originally, Panama City was founded a few kilometres east of here in the 16th century, but after it was destroyed, a new settlement was established here, on a small peninsula jotting out into the sea. Its unique character and special blend of architectural styles have turned it into a world heritage site.
