Panama
City Tour "Discover the three cities" |
|
|
Panama
Viejo ("Old Panama"),
founded in 1519, was the
first European city established
on the Pacific Coast of
the Americas and was Pizarro's
staging area for his attack
on the Incas. Destroyed
by the gold-seeking English
pirate Henry Morgan in the
late 1600s, the city was
rebuilt a few years later
on a more defensible peninsula
and Casco Viejo ("Old
Crown") was born. The
modern, cosmopolitan areas
of Panama City add yet a
third dimension to this
history-steeped city.
Architectural structures
in various states of repair
survive from Panama City's
turbulent past and offer
afternoons of sightseeing
among old brick, iron grillwork,
and Baroque facades.
Coexisting with the gleaming
skyscrapers ,Panama City
owes much of its cosmopolitan
and international flavor
to the Panama Canal, the
giant ditch that brings
the world to the isthmus.

Historic
Tour “Portobelo” |
|
|
When
the Spanish colonies were
at its prime and the conquest
of the Inca Empire was accomplished,
the Spaniards set their
eyes in strategic sites
of Panama to transfer their
cargos from coast to coast.
Portobelo was the end of
the Royal Road (Camino Real),
path between the oceans
that started in the Old
Panama City. Old Spanish
galleons unloaded their
treasures, transferred them
across the Isthmus, and
finally loaded the vessels
waiting in Portobelo, in
order to transfer them back
to the Old World.
This activity became very
attractive to Pirates and
Buccaneers, forcing the
Spanish conquerors to build
forts for protection and
customs. Nevertheless, all
this was strategically planned,
Sir Francis Drake, a British
Buccaneer, who sacked and
destroyed Portobelo where
he was later killed in a
battle. His body remains
in a lead coffin in the
bottom of the ocean in Portobelo
Bay.
This day you have an appointment
with History.

Train
& History (Monday to Friday) |
|
|
| The Interoceanic Train is a railway line that links the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean across Panama. The Railway was of vital importance for the construction of the Panama Canal and the principal incentive its building was the vast increase in traffic to California owing to the 1849 California Gold Rush. The construction on the Panama Railroad began in 1850 and the first revenue train ran over the full length on January 28, 1855. Today with an investment of $80 million dollars, the revitalized railroad provides an efficient intermodal link between the Pacific and Atlantic ports and complements the existing hub transportation infrastructure provided by the Canal, the Colon Free Trade Zone, the Port terminals, highways and airports. To complete this tour full of history we will visit Portobelo Historic Town. |
