Greenbelts in Panama City

Nestled in the heart of Panama's peaceful San Francisco neighborhood, Parque Omar offers environmentmental beauty in an urban setting.  With kilometers of paths and greenways, it's a perfect place to get out of the house and get some exercise.  There are tennis courts and soccer fields and children's playgrounds open to the public.  The park is also home to Panama's National Library.  While Parque Omar has been around for awhile, a trend of continuing to build parks and recreational areas as the city expands bodes well for the beauty of Panama and the health of her residents.

Muy céntrico en el barrio de San Francisco tenemos al Parque Omar, una área verde con kilómetros de senderos, perfecto para salir de la casa y hacer un poco de ejercicio.  Con canchas de tenis, fútbol, y áreas para niños, este parque es un escape rural en un centro urbano.  Panama sigue haciendo parques con la expansion de la ciudad, algo que da esperanza para el astetico de la cuidad y salud de sus ocupantes.

Green connection between new and old

With the aforementioned expansion of the Cinta Costa, Panama's oceanfront boulevard will now have pedestrian, roller skating, and bicycle paths stretching all the way from the modern Skyscrapers of Patilla to the colonial Elegance of Casco Viejo.  Thousands of residences and hotel rooms will have easy access to this costal strip, where tourists may try their hand at tropical exercise or immerse themselves in one of the many seasonal parades planned for the area.

Pronto, la Cinta Costera de Panama ira desde Paitilla hasta el Casco Viejo.  Con amplio espacio para ejercicio o diversión, este área al lado del mar es una excelente manera ver la ciudad o ponerse en forma.  Con miles de residencias y cuartos de hotel por terminar cerca, y la limpieza de la bahía por venir, debe volverse aun mas popular muy pronto!
