Abstract

This article aims to present the inventory (so to speak) of the so-called "royal roads" in Panama, and the little that is known about them. These royal roads are part of a series of buildings, in ruins or lost within the jungle and the plain, and locations of old villages or hamlets that were an important part of the economic movement of what is now our country, during the colony. Analyzing different bibliographic sources, it becomes known about the historical discovery of these roads, what was found there, the existing efforts to preserve them and to find more, despite their threats from the negligence of local authorities. It concludes with a series of initiatives that allow these roads to be exploited through sustainable tourism through cultural tourist circuits.
