Panama City's restored old quarter, a peninsula of colonial and Republican-era buildings, plazas, and churches founded after the original city burned. Rooftop bars and boutique hotels now occupy former ruins, while the seafront promenade frames the modern skyline across the bay. The Panama Canal Museum and the golden altar of San José church anchor the sightseeing.
