The heart of Mary is in the heart of Panama City

Panama City, like so many cities in Latin America, has many beautiful and historic churches. A few are well-known to tourists. One that is not so well-known is the Santuario Nacional del Corazon de Maria (National Shrine of the Heart of Mary) in the city's financial district, but off the major streets, unseen by many. Construction began in August 1947 and was finally complete two years later.

It is a beautiful church and certainly worth a visit.
