The "Calzada de Amador" it is just a nice place by the sea. You can walk, ride a bike, have a nice lunch or just sit and take a look at the city skyline. It also has a duty free shop near some restaurants. Not much more than that, but of the little choice Panama City has to offer it... more

Overview: This is a roadway/walkway built from the rock excavated from building the canal. It extends outward from Panama' City and connects three separate small islands.

Good place for some sights, food, drinking. Relatively safe, but of course always travel in groups at night anywhere outside the US. Reminds me of a beginning stage of Chicago's Navy Pier without a Ferris Wheel. You can drive there as parking is ample. more

The cuaseway reminded me of any new development in Florida. Since Panama was only first allowed access to the Cuaseway in 1999, all of the consturction on it is very new. It has several restaurants and several new clubs are popping up along it. However, it was not "authentic" and just felt like a strip mall in any other warm... more
