La Colorada Town shines with its own light thanks to its clean streets, parks that invite you to walk, houses with traditional architecture and people who treat you as if they knew you since always. The commercial activity of this picturesque region of the country is saddlery, which is the art of making leather products or fittings for chivalry. It is also where the colored corn bun (bollo de colores) is made and their famous roasted pork, a traditional dish that is cooked for the San Pedro Apostol Celebration. <\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/www.thevisitorpanama.info\/esp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/La-Colorada-22-1024x554-1.jpg\")

Colorful Parties<\/strong>
This town knows how to have festivals that attract the attention of local and foreign visitors, such as the “Cow Festival” that takes place on November 2. This celebration is a folkloric and cultural spectacle where a person dressed in wooden armor in the shape of a cow walks through the town ramming anyone who crosses his path \u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/www.thevisitorpanama.info\/esp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/La-Colorada-13-1024x692-1.jpg\")

The festivities of San Pedro Apostol, which is celebrated in June, has the tradition that starting midnight the town’s residents serve their guests with their famous roasted pork, which is given free of charge to all who come to celebrate this famous traditional celebration. Another festivity is the \u201cAmanecida de San Pedro\u201d (Early Morning Wake Up of San Pedro) an indigenous tradition, with more than 100 years old since the arrival of the San Pedro image to the town. A celebration that every year gets more crowded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/www.thevisitorpanama.info\/esp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/rvXMGTzg-1024x573.jpg\")

Curiosity<\/strong>
Many people confuse this town with the one located at Los Santos Province, however, both have much in common, and the reason why is that the Mojica, Castro and Nu\u00f1ez families from La Colorada at Los Santos were the first to settle in this region of the Veraguas province, for this reason several traditions are similar between both towns.
Rural tourism will be one of the first tourist activities that will be carried out once the industry is reactivated. For this reason, if you are looking for tranquility, natural beauties, cultural traditions, unique and delicious gastronomy for that long-awaited trip to the Country side, La Colorada offers you the opportunity to experience a little piece of heaven within our country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/www.thevisitorpanama.info\/esp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/9K7S91Ag-1-767x1024.jpg\")
