A writer for Forbes set out to list the coolest neighborhoods in the world, the areas in great cities that have maintained their authenticity and charm, with being overrun by tourists. She narrowed it down to 12 neighborhoods, including Panama City’s famed Casco Viejo, the city’s beautifully restored old city.

Casco Viejo was singled out by Melissa Biggs Bradley, the founder of luxury travel company Indagare.

“The neighborhood buzzes with restoration and new openings, as the developers tackle building after colonial building,” Biggs Bradley told Forbes.
