Panama

Panama is the most eastern country in Central Amerca and hence the last country before hitting South America. Between Central and South America, there is no road, only rain forest and mountain passes so to get to the continent, one has to either fly, take a boat or hike through the forest. The latter option is not recommended by anyone as it is a high-risk project and it is not only possible, but also very likely, that you will get robbed of all your belongings along the way as not even the police dare to enter this area.

Panama is a tiny country famous for:
1) The Panama Canal;
2) The Panama Hat (which for some weird reason is made in Ecuador and not Panama);
3) The palindrome "A man a plan a canal panama"; and
4) Panama City, which is the only capital city that has got a rain forest within the city boundary.

Unfortunately, I have not seen anything like the environment that is featured in the Panama scenes of "Prison Break". I wonder where that was shot. And as Panama is not more exciting than this, I have nothing more to write on the subject.
