There is not just the beauty of the countryside to be discovered, but the variety of regional and local ways of life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePanama has preserved much of its indigenous Indian culture and this unique way of life continues to thrive alongside the imprint of two centuries of development. Small though it is, Panama combines the latest technology and modern commerce with an environmentally and anthropologically rich heritage. This means that you can be in the fast-moving metropolis of Panama City, and yet be less than an hour's flight away from dense rain forests and the very different indigenous cultural life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDespite continuous foreign domination in the past, the Panamanians now have complete sovereignty over their country. Masters in their own house at last, they are both proud and welcoming. Good manners are as important to them as the original laid-back Latin style, and you will find them friendly, polite, and relaxed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eCulture Smart!
