Mi Pueblito
A reconstructed traditional Panamanian village at the foot of Ancón Hill, showing a colonial inland town, an Afro-Caribbean community and indigenous dwellings.
The folk village has three sections: an inland colonial town with white-walled churches and plazas, colorful Caribbean-style wooden houses, and indigenous thatched huts. Folk dance performances are often held on weekends, and the village has traditional restaurants and craft shops. Admission is about US$1 to 3. It pairs well with a visit to Ancón Hill and the Metropolitan Natural Park on the same day. The village is in the Balboa district, and a taxi is the most convenient way to get there.
