Considered by many as the heartland of Panama, Azuero is home to more traditional Panamanian culture and folklore than any other area. The east coast of the Peninsula is dotted with quaint Panamanian villages steeped in vernacular history, pastoral folklore, and traditions, all held in the cradle of nature.

Getting around town is pretty easy. Bicycles are an important part of the transportation system. You see them everywhere. In Pedasí you could easily get by without a car. Sure, if you plan to head out of town often or want to shoot into the big city from time to time to pick up supplies, a car would be useful, but getting around the village can be done easily on foot or by bicycle. In fact, some locals still travel by horseback.

Farms, or fincas, make up a large part of the area around Pedasí. The road leading into and away from town is lined with farmland. Pedasí is home to a milk factory, and grows fruits and vegetable such as mangoes, rice, and corn. If you have an interest in farming your land, this is a great place to do it.

Pedasí is situated in the province of Los Santos, on the south-eastern tip of the Azuero Peninsula. The capital of the province is Las Tablas. The beaches surrounding Pedasí have become a lure to capital from around the world. People are buying tracts of land and lots, and are building and relocating to the equivalent of their vision of pristine paradise.

Away from the hustle and bustle of the city center lies the rolling green landscape of the Chiriquí highlands, downtown La Concepción. La Concepción is a sought-after place for expats seeking their own personal paradise…

Downtown La Concepción has long been an important commercial district in the “breadbasket of Panama,” the heart of agricultural production in the country. Today, the town is making a new name for itself as more and more expats discover all it has to offer. Although new subdivisions are hard to come by, plenty of new houses are being built. Not all are expat homes. The ethnic population of La Concepción is diverse, with Germans, English, Cubans, and Asians, just to name a few. This diversity is helping to lead La Concepción in a new direction.

The town has a reputation among expats as being safe. People watch out for one another, locals and expats alike. Even houses outside of town are secure, as neighbors know one another and are aware of their surroundings.

Many expats also enjoy the vibrant festival life of La Concepción. You can always find a parade, fair, or street party going on, celebrating one of Panama’s many holidays and traditions.

If you’re looking for a tropical climate without the heat of the beach, La Concepción delivers. If you want a lush garden with plants of every shape and color and maybe a horse farm for neighbors… La Concepción is your best bet in Panama.
