 Just
to the south of Costa Rica lies the relatively undiscovered country
of Panama. In Central America Costa Rica is the most popular tourist
destination. However recently Panama is beginning to take off.
Panama offers everything Costa Rica has plus far less tourists.
Today the name Panama conjurs up images of the famous Panama Canal.
The beauty and the reason to visit the country is due to the stunning
natural attractions Panama has to offer. The wildlife adventures
are countless, ranging from hiking through rainforests, rafting
down wild rivers to snorkeling and deep see fishing. Combine this
with an interesting Spanish heritage, friendly people and interesting
cultural aspects, and you have a wonderful place to visit and
learn Spanish in.

fact that Panama forms a land bridge between North America and
South America. Some publications have stated that Panama is home
to the largest diversity of plant and animal species found anywhere
in the world. If you are interesting in seeing some of the most
amazing plant and animal life anywhere in the world, then Panama

City. This is truly a modern city full of modern skyscrapers,
malls, office buildings and the like. It is easily the most advanced

hard to refurbish this areas, and if you have time you should
stop by to see them. The city is also a great jumping off point
for the undiscovered rainforests and tropical beaches. Within

reserves and national parks.
