El Casco Viejo, Panama City Panama
..................
Panamanian native handicrafts rival Mexico's in their beauty and creativity. The markets are filled with vibrant and colorful handcrafted items of all kinds. From hammocks, blankets, clothing, paintings, pottery.... the colors are tremendously wonderful and the vendors are delightfully proud.
..................
Casco Viejo is located on the Western end of Panama City along the bay. It is a Peninsula jutting off the coast in between Balboa Avenue and the Amador Causeway.
.....................
Casco Viejo is the oldest city on the Pacific Coast of the Americas, and lies at the foot of the Panama Canal on one side and Panama City on the other. The area now serves as one of the country�s most popular tourist attractions, frequented by tourist guides and photographers alike. The architecture is a combination of ruins from the days of Spanish Explorers, Pirates, and French Colonists from the first attempt made on the Panama Canal by the French. Balconies are filled with flowers such as geraniums and bougainvillea wrapped around sculpted wrought iron railings. There are Historical plazas with such figures as heroic Generals on horseback like Liberador Simon B�livar, which has his statue situated in the center of Plaza Bolivar. The Church of San Francisco (La Iglesia de San Francisco), National Theater (El Teatro Nacional), Hotel Colonial, and B�livar College (Colegio Bolivar) are all attractions to visit in the historic area.
........................
This neighborhood has a mixture of architecture, social classes, restaurants, monuments, and plazas. There is a small feel to this neighborhood and neighbors tend to know each other well with many residents sitting in outdoor cafes or hanging out on their balconies.
