In Panama City’s booming colonial core, locals fight to stay; Juan Zamorano; AP
PANAMA CITY (AP) – Esther Marina Sanchez has watched her neighborhood – the heart of Panama City – transformed by its designation as a UNESCO world heritage site. Tourists and well-heeled Panamanians now stroll the paving-stone streets among gaudy hotels, fancy restaurants and trendy discos that have popped up in once-dilapidated colonial-era buildings. Gone are the gangs, the decay and abandoned structures – as well as Sanchez’s home, and those of most of her neighbors.

Finding Panama City’s groove with Hard Rock; Pamela Jacobs; Travel Weekly
“Music is in our DNA,” Vince Koehle, marketing director of Hard Rock Hotels in the Americas, told me over dinner. It was my first evening at the Hard Rock Hotel Panama Megapolis, and already this was evident.
I’d spent the afternoon toying with the Fender Telecaster guitar that was mine for the duration of my stay, and the early part of the evening on a music memorabilia tour led by the property’s “Vibe Manager.” After dinner, I watched that same manager sing alongside guests during live-band karaoke.
Those with a music obsession will feel right at home at the 66-story tower, in the heart of Panama City.
