Panama Hotel: Magnolia Inn - Panama City, Panama

Casco Viejo is one of Panama City’s oldest neighborhoods—in fact, it was where the city was rebuilt after the original site was destroyed. These days, Casco Viejo is a charming mixture of culture and history. Chic cafés and restaurants fill the bottom layer of colonial-style buildings and cobblestone streets connect churches to museums. It’s a nice place to stroll and imagine what Panama City looked like a few hundred years ago. Aside from Casco Viejo, visitors to Panama City can enjoy the city’s other cultural attractions, including Old Panama (Panamá Viejo) and the Panama Canal. Those that are itching to get outdoors can spend the day exploring the Soberanía National Park, which has one of Panama’s best birding sites (Pipeline Road).
