Casco Viejo Golden Altar,Panama City, Panama

Quite the story here. Legend has it that the altar was saved from the pirate Henry Morgan during the sacking of the original Panama City when a priest had it painted black, hiding its true value. Compared to many of the buildings in the area, this one has been well restored and it provides a fitting background to the golden altar. Of all items in Casco Viejo, this was the most impressive, especially when one takes consideration of the age.
