On the way to Casco Viejo (or Casco Antiguo) - Old (Antique) City
Entering Casco Viejo - I loved this area! There is a lot of reconnstruction going on here - Often you can see where they are leaving the facades of buildings and rebuilding new structures behind them.In this area there are a lot of government and mistererio (ministry) buildings, the National institute of art and other offial buildings are stuated here.. there are also a lot of interesting apartments where local people live and as usual a real mix of incomes put together..
I hear this area is being developed into an a very creative and artistic area - I think if I was going to live here, this would be the area I would live in.
The Church : Iglesia de San José (also called the Church of the Golden Altar)

Near the center of this picture, wayy back in the fog, you can see the Bridge of the Americas, which joins North & South America. Cool!!
Art treasures!! The Ejyptian relief to the left was from Noreaga's place when they took him to jail. (not sure if he gets it back when he gets out)
