Have you ever crossed the border between #Costa Rica and #Panama? A small but now chaotically busy international town that embraces both sides of the border between Costa Rica and Panama had humble beginnings. However, today Paso Canoas is a hub of cross-border trade activity with customs and immigration offices on both sides to facilitate the growing commercial activity between the two countries. It also caters to a tourist trade that crosses on foot and all other types of ground transportation. As a result, the town is a labyrinth of small and large stores selling all types of goods at reasonable prices, sodas, restaurants, and hotels that contribute to Paso Canoas or Paso “Chaos’” unique charm. The people of this area make their livelihood from the commercial enterprises here and although there is some agricultural activity, one might say it is less diverse as compared to many other places in the country.
