What is Panamá

Panama is a country in Central America with coastlines on both the Caribbean Sea and the North Pacific Ocean, with Colombia (and South America) to the southeast and Costa Rica (and North America) to the northwest. It's strategically located on the isthmus that forms the land bridge connecting North and South America. It controls the Panama Canal that links the North Atlantic Ocean via Caribbean Sea with North Pacific Ocean, one of the most important shipping routes in the world.

About Panamá elsewhere

"With US backing, Panama seceded from Colombia in 1903 and promptly signed a treaty with the US allowing for the construction of a canal and US sovereignty over a strip of land on either side of the structure (the Panama Canal Zone)."

"A significant investment was made in eliminating disease from the area, particularly yellow fever and malaria ,the causes of which had recently been discovered (see Health measures during the construction of the Panama Canal )."
en.wikipedia.org

"The Panama Canal Zone ( Spanish : Zona del Canal de Panamá ), was a 553 square mile (1,432 km²) territory inside of Panama ,consisting of the Panama Canal and an area generally extending 5 miles (8.1 km) on each side of the centerline (but excluding Panama City and Colón ,which otherwise would have fallen in part within the limits of the Canal Zone.) Its border spanned two of Panama's provinces and was created on November 18 , 1903 with the signing of the Hay-Bunau-Varilla Treaty."

"Apart from the existing demand, future developments will also be helped by such factors as the planned expansion of the Panama Canal ,a possible refinery by U.S. oil giant Occidental Petroleum and a new container port near the Pacific entrance of the canal."
en.wikipedia.org

"The capital of Panama is a modern, thriving commercial centre stretching 8km (5mi) along the Pacific coast from the ruins of Panamá Viejo to the edge of the Panama Canal."

"From its completion in 1962 until the opening of the Centennial Bridge in 2004 ,the Bridge of the Americas was a key part of the Pan-American Highway ; as the only permanent crossing over the Panama Canal it was the only permanent link between North and South America since the opening of the canal in 1914."

Panama City leaves a lot to be desired. I recommend heading to Bocas del Toro or Boquete

The Panama Canal is an amazing engineering feat. If you find yourself in Panama City I highly recommend going to the Miraflores Locks.
