Boquete, Mountain town in Chiriquí Province, Panama
The riverside settlement rests at 1,200 meters elevation in western Panama, surrounded by mountains and coffee plantations in the Chiriquí highlands.
The region contains petroglyphs from 600 BC, later serving as a refuge for Ngöbe and Misquito tribes during Spanish colonial times.
The annual Boquete Jazz Festival brings musicians from different countries, while the Coffee and Flower Fair celebrates local agricultural traditions each March.
