This small country, connecting Central and South America, is brimming with gorgeous scenery, wonderful wildlife, and a vibrant, rich culture that beckons travelers to forget their cares, pack sunscreen, and discover adventure around every turn.
Panama’s cultural life blends indigenous peoples with Spanish influences, brought to the area by settlers in the 16th century. A remarkably diverse nation, Panama is home to Creole, Spanish, Italian, Greek, Chinese, African, Jewish, and Hindu populations, as well as four officially recognized Indian ethnic groups- the Kuna, Embera, Waunaan, and Guaymi. The blend of heritages and cultures is reflected throughout city life, in the food, music, and attractions that combine to create a unique travel experience.
