Panama La Vieja *

Panama


Founded in 1519, burnt down in 1671. The city was moved in 1673 to the Old Quarters (Casco viejo), which I portrayed in the past challenge. The ruins have survived all this time as a testimony for violent past times.

If you ever come back, be sure to let me know, maybe we can do as Gayle and Neil and meet for some photographing day.

Sí, me gustó Panamá mucho pero solo estaba alli por 2 días. Hablo español pero perfectamente no. Me voy a voluntar este otoño (america norte) en Guatemala para mejorar mi españól. En enero, mi servicio con el Cuerpo de Paz comenzará, tambien en Guatemala. Me gustaría volver a conocer Panamá pero no sé cuando tenga la oportunidad. Pero estoy seguro que voy a regresar alli un día:-)

Cool, if you could scan them, it would be great to see my country thru the eyes of a visitor.

Yes, I think I do have some P&S film pictures in an album somewhere. I'll have to dig them up. I haven't gone through that album for quite a while so I'll get the chance to relive my few days in Panama;-)

Nice! Do you have any pics?

Nice photo Nugar. It's nice to see your pictures of Panama. I remember walking through this part of the city about 4 or 5 years ago. We had a very nice taxi driver that walked around with us as our guide.
