Not quite sure, I know a friend of mine went and did not like it at all, but to each his own.

Yes, It seems that this is the largest one in Panama. But it`s a little bit far from my apartment, and I am afraid to go ther alone.

Sig Other + friends & I are looking at renting a house for a week... wasn't sure how "careful" we need to be. (we do fine in Belize, St. John, Abacos, Long Island - bahamas not NY!)...

I'm not sure what you base that on, given that numerous travelers gay and straight say otherwise, there are multiple gay bars, and the City has experienced a huge boom in the past decade. Also, Cuba is a really silly place to compare it to, as it's a pretty fun country. And neither country is particularly hostile to gays in the range of things. So, thanks?

But if anyone has anything helpful, Id appreciate it.

Hi all, I'm heading to Panama City for the first time later this month and would like to know if anyone has more recent info about the city. I'm not really looking for clubs, more bars/restaurants, kind of quieter places. Thanks!

What I am amazed at is that is Panama is so popular why are others not posting about it on FT?
