READING What do you know about our cultural heritage?


COMPREHENSION
Panama has different ethnic groups that make up the country
This diversity of cultures is reflected in our traditions, customs,
music and even cuisine. Talking about music you find different
versions from Colon to Bocas del Toro, provinces inhabited for
black African descendants. While in Colon you can find out the
beaten drum with de Congo rhythm as a resemblance of the
slavery period. In Bocas del Toro,
they practice the May Pole
dance with a great Spaniard influence.

country without equal. The traditions and customs show how
from these two cultures emerge a new, one that is unique. The

garden and houses.
