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!

Gentrification continues in San Felipe

Panama is continuing the success of the Casco Antiguo district by extending the effort to carefully restore historical architecture into the surrounding neighborhoods.  At the same time, the Cinta Costera, Panama's relatively system of waterfront highways and parks, is being extended to accomodate the increased activity in the area.  Seen here, the skilled local craftsmen nestled in with the fishing fleet, buildings that are to be restored, and the results of some of their previous efforts.

Sigue el éxito del Casco Antiguo con el expansión del esfuerzo de restauración a los barrios alrededor.  Hace poco, Panama consiguió nueva fachada con la cinta costera, y ahora se extiende para juntar con San Felipe y acomodar el incremento de actividad en la área.  Aquí: trabajadores locales y sus edificios.

Panama's alternative scene

Last night I wandered the moody streets of Panama's old city looking for a bar that moves.  With tents and torches, La Casona, as it's known, occupies ruined buildings of Casco Viejo before they are restored to their original condition, giving home to a unique mix of alternative music, styles, and personalities.  Past the midnight food stands, through the quinta Alley, down a broken stairway onto a rock balcony overlooking the ocean, I found it.  The lights of the Panama Canal twinkled in the distance and the red stage flood washed over me as an acoustic night, showcasing local singer/songwriter talent, got underway.  The mix of people is amazing.  I met circus performers, Spanish businessmen, emigres from Colombia, visitors from Venezuela, onlookers from the United States, and as always, the strong local contingent cheering on their friends.  Panama is a party.  If you want glittering glass nightclubs and a Miami style dance scene, we've got that, but if you're on a different vibe, well, we've got that too!

Hay una vibra diferente en la Casona, el bar que se a veces mude en casco antiguo de Panama.  Aquí: Artistas y publico en una noche mostrando talentos músicos locales en una 'Ola Acústica'.

Panama is Culture

Panama's old city is home to historical architecture which is being carefully maintained and put to use.  Seen here: the Ministry of Justice, Plaza de la Catedral, and the National Theater, which regularly holds classical concerts and cultural performance Art exhibitions.  

El Casco Antiguo de la Ciudad de Panama es lleno de arquitectura colonial que se mantiene y se usa hasta el sol de hoy.  Visto aquí: el Ministro de Justicia, la Plaza de la Catedral, y el Teatro Nacional, cuna de eventos conciertos e eventos culturales en el país.
