Panama, Casco Antiguo
Panama, Casco Viejo
Real Estate and Community at Panama´s Historic District


As Christmas approaches, the city goes crazy. Yesterday, Panama´s traditional Christmas Parade took over Avenida Balboa. Thousands of kids running around, piling up to see the cars and trucks dressed up with miscellaneous Christmas themes.  But where are all these props made?  you would be surprised to know that the "Factory of Dreams" carved in foam is in Casco Viejo. More specifically, next to the Cathedral, run not by Santa but by Franz.

Pass any day and you´ll see a big iguana climbing from a balcony and a bunch of guys having a good time drinking beer at the door. Inside, and specially near Christmas, there are tons of half made things that somehow are put together into fantastic characters: clowns, carnival masks, gigantic dolphins.  Despite the appearances, they do a lot of work. And when they are full steam ahead, watch out!
