To start, they gave us a tour by cart to get to where the tower of
Panama La Vieja is, then they began with the tour where they also they took us to climb more than 150 steps, to be able to observe the entire city of Panama. They explained their history to us, how they destroyed it, etc. They showed us the main square where different activities such as events and bullfights were held. After that they took us to the Plaza Mayor Museum, what caught my attention the most was the ceramics they made at that time, their designs and shapes. The stories of how they lived, their clothes, their cutlery, kitchen utensils, etc. the great model of Panama Viejo as it was in the 17th century.
