Definitely should be included when touring Casco Viejo. Beautiful city square with monument to Simon Bolivar, the hero of independence from Spain. Nearby Palacio Bolivar is of huge historic significance. Plenty of patio dining available here as well.

The plaza is a really beautiful open space that is incredibly well maintained and kept. The cleanliness of the plaza with the statues and backdrop of the church make for a perfect picture!

Full of decent, but expensive snacky type restaurants.
This is a place where Simon Bolivar tried to organise the indpendence movement for the liberation of Central and South America.

Lovely square in Casco Viejo dominated by a monument to the famous Simon Bolivar.
The monument is bordered by historical buildings, restaurants and cafes.

On our visit to Casco Viejo we stopped in the Plaza to take a rest. Great place to stop and rest, have a drink and people watch.

Plaza Bolivar is a small but beautiful square in Casco Viejo. The central monument is naturally to the great liberator Simon Bolivar, surrounded with greenery and trees.
There were two cafes on the side in a shade perfect for a drink to enjoy the beauty. Do not forget to visit the splendid renovated St. Francis Asisi Church dominating the square.

Seriously nice and quiet perfect place to stay. Can rent apartment on Airbnb called Niceplace Inn. "One Studio with Plaza View Balcony Center Casco" They have 4 different apartment. Amazing rooftop, with pool. As see in photos in building - a truly great find for a stay in Casco Viejo.

Located in casco viejo, this plaza is nice to walk in and enjoy a good coffee in the morning or a really cold beer in the afternoon in one of the few restaurants that are in the surroundings

You can't really have a complete appreciation of the Panama Canal without seeing an getting the history of the old Panama City, it's people and see the way they honor the people and area that has made the city what it is today
