If some pictures are 'x'ed try refreshing.....Thxs to PanamaBoom for most of the pictures!!:cheers:

Heres some pictures taken from "Cerro Ancon" which is a small mountain very close to the city. Cerro Ancon has always been a great place to get a great view of the pacific ocean and panama city and its skyline.

Now correct me if Im wrong but from the quality of this picture it seems like this one was taken in the 1930's...in this time there wasnt a single highrise. It was just a nice beach city. Now there is no beach near the city due to contamination:(
