Hiking
Architecturally, the course is impressively constructed and very appealing. In addition to the curved design around the obelisk in the middle, some columns with statues stretch into the air. What I found most interesting was that the prominent Frenchman Ferdinand-Marie de Lesseps found a place here. He didn't build the Panama Canal, but the Suez Canal. He later failed at the Panama Canal.

The Monumental Complex of Las Bóvedas forms the walls that surround the Plaza de Francia in the Old Town of Panama. The monumental complex consists of seven vaulted spaces that made up the city's historic defensive system.
