David

David is the third largest city in Panama and the capital of the Chiriqui province. It is a very convenient stop over point for several important destinations within Chiriqui, such as the flower and coffee highlands of Boquete and Cerro Punta. It is located 45 minutes from Paso Canoas, the border of Costa Rica and you can also drive to Bocas del Toro via David with your rental car.
David is one the country's best and most beautiful cities, and it is able to offer some interesting things to do. Since it is such an important travel hub, it has been doing a lot of growing up in recent years, especially as Panama tourism begins to find itself on the world radar.
Try visiting David during the middle of March, when the Feria Internacional de David is going on. This week-long festival is quite an interesting affair, featuring products from the region as well as from other countries. The fair is also a showroom of Panamanian traditions. It's truly something to experience if you get the chance.
