 Panama, Republic of Panama
The southernmost of the Central American nations. Panama is south of Costa Rica and north of Colombia.
The Panama Canal bisects the isthmus at its narrowest and lowest point, allowing passage from the Caribbean Sea to the Pacific Ocean.
Panama is marked by a chain of mountains in the west, moderate hills in the interior, and low range on the east coast. There are extensive forests in the fertile Caribbean area.
Accommodation:
Panama has embarked on an extensive hotel expansion programme, not only in Panama City, but also in the countryside and in mountain and seaside areas. Accommodation ranges from international standard to inexpensive country inns, very simple hotels and new resort-style hotels. There is a 10% government tax added to hotel bills.

The Caribbean and the Pacific Ocean are linked by the man-made Panama Canal, cut into a gap between the Cordillera de Talamanca and the San Blas mountain range and stretching for over 65km (40 miles); the length of the canal is often referred to as 80km (50 miles) as this is the distance between deep-water points of entry. Only about a quarter of the country is inhabited. | | |
