The official language is Spanish, but English is widely spoken and understood (as a second language) as Panama is a world-class banking and business center and is a call center for a number of renowned international firms. Additionally, embassies and consulates of many countries are established in Panama ready to serve their citizens whenever they need, as well as other entities that can provide visitors with information.
Another advantage that Panama offers is its modern state-of-the-art communication systems allowing local and worldwide calls to be made instantly, any time, all the time and at very economical rates. Fixed, cellular and voice over internet protocol phone services are available and internet is widely provided.
There is much more to know about Panama and its rich history reflected in its folklore, world cuisine, architecture, crafts, mountains and beaches, lakes and crystal clear water and its capital, Panama City, with its modern infrastructure and high-rise buildings, shopping centers, entertainment, fine restaurants, and lots more. And, what better way to find out than just coming to Panama, which is only a less than 3 -hour flight from Miami.
