The old quarter of Panama City dates back to 1673. It is easy to believe, simply by looking around this part of the city, that Catholicism is the most common religion as we saw a lot of beautiful churches that clearly had a long history.
These churches were just a 5 – 10 minute walk from one to the next. Inside was impressive stained glass, statues… one had an
enormous Bethlehem scene that was easily 15 feet wide and 5 feet deep. (Still on display as February began.)
These old buildings, where it is easy to imagine others coming to quietly reflect on their problems and frustrations gave the streets a different vibe than Flat Hal’s hometown.
