rainforest, mangrove swamps, rivers, mountains of which the tallest is a

Panama has a strong arts and culture
that is old and new in tradition. It has over ten museums that display many art
forms such as pre-Columbian artifacts to modern contemporary art. Its art is a
mix of indigenous to modern art pieces. One popular form of art is the Mola
which is a woven artistic design on shirts for people to wear. There are also
amazing crafts made by the people of Panama such as beautiful woven backets,
taqua nut carvings, and many tribal indigenous fine crafts made by the Wounaan,
Emberá, Kuna and Ngobe-Bugle tribes. There are many different dances and music
which is a huge part of Panama and its festivals. One such form of tradition is
the national tamborito which is the highest form of expression of Panamanian
folk art which combines dance, music, lyrics, and native costume. This
tradition is performed for all festivals and especially in early February when
Panama Carnival is going on for everyone to see and celebrate. Panama invites
the world to bask in its warm welcoming Latin American hospitality, fine arts,
amazing history, architecture, and of course there is that little canal we have
as well. Come see our beautiful, tropical resorts, islands, and many tours of
the canal, islands, and native ruins.
This is nicely done. Thanks for including the links! I like the lists of the different kinds of arts. I would definitely like to visit based on this brochure.
