Panama City
Some panamanians called ”Panama City” the ”Miami” of the South. Panama is the southernmost country of Central America connecting the north and south part of America. Today the city offers daily direct flights from about six cities in the United States, including New York, Newark and Los Angeles.
Panama is famous with its tropical climate and the Panama Canal. No trip to Panama City is complete without a visit to the Panama Canal. During that visit it’s good to have a snack at the Miraflores Locks, the southernmost of three sets of water elevators that fill and drain as ships wend their way between the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans by way of the Caribbean Sea. Just five miles from the city’s center, the new Miraflores Visitor Center is home to a multilevel exhibition and a third-floor restaurant, where you almost touch the passing vessels while you refuel.
To ensure a choice table, call the restaurant for reservations; you can also call the center for the day’s scheduled crossings.
In the end to complete your tour go to canal of Gamboa Rainforest Resort, which is a 340-acre nature reserve that slices through the Soberanía National Park, a Tarzan-like jungle that is home to a staggering 500-plus species of birds. An observation tower offers another bird’s-eye view
