Cultural Wealth

Cultural Wealth is one of reasons to visit Panama. Since the formation of the isthmus, this country has experienced significant exchange. From the early tribes, it was mixed with mestizos from other parts of America, as well as a number of Europeans and Asians that arrived in Panama with the construction of the Panama Canal. All of this has resulted in a mixed and multicultural Panamanian. There are other indigenous tribes who have migrated to Panama and made it their home, such as the Emberás and the Gunas.

You can take a tour to get to know an Emberá community, or you can go to Azuero, the cradle of Panamanian folklore, and learn how to make the Panamanian skirt, one of the most beautiful and luxurious traditional costumes in the world, or you can learn how to make cutarras, the footwear of the Panamanian peasant, where the mold is the person who buys it, and it is literally made to measure. You can also go on a tour to Mi Pueblito to view an example of internal customs, gunas, and Afro-descendants in Panama.
