- Panama Canal Railway. I didn’t talk about it this in the video because the railway was closed at the time I visited but this is on my bucket list. It’s a railway that goes along the Canal from Panama City in the Pacific to Colon on the Caribbean side. I plan on making a video in the future when I go back. If you’re in Panama and the railway is open. I definitely recommend experiencing this.

This is a great video! I went to Panama City in 2019 and stayed at the Hilton Panama, I remember walking along the Cinta Costera, taking the tour of Panama Canal, and taking the ride on the Amador Causeway on the way to Casco Viejo. Back then Casco Viejo didn't impress me because of the construction and shelled out old buildings, but I guess everything changes 5 years later and after the pandemic... Next trip to Panama I hope to revisit the same places and try new ones, specifically the Bio Museum, Gatun Lake, and the Canal on the Colon side. Definitely try their foods, especially sancocho! Your video skills are also top notch, and love the aerial shots of the city! Thank you again and have a blessed Thanksgiving!
