Panama Viejo is the original site where the city was founded in 1519. Located about a 15- to 20-minute drive out of the city towards Tocumen International Airport, this historical sight is worth the effort to visit. The 14 remaining ruins are spread out over an area about 1.5 kilometers long.

Social etiquette
When entering a place (whether it is a house, a shop or just passing by), people tend to greet each other with the word “Buenas”, even to complete strangers. When in a more formal situation, like a meeting, you should use the form “Buenos días” (Good morning) or “Buenas tardes” (Good afternoon/evening).
