The December solstice marks the beginning of the dry season in most of Panama, though in the Darien, the rainiest place on earth with over 3,000 millimeters of annual rainfall, the concept of a dry season is relative. Indigenous communities observe the solstice with ceremonies that honor the cycles of the sun and the rain. In Panama City, the solstice is celebrated with outdoor concerts along the Cinta Costera, where the modern skyline provides a backdrop of steel and glass against the ancient rhythm of the seasons.
