It is an indigenous territory of the Guna ethnic group in Panama. It was created in 1996 from territories east of the province of Panama, in the district of Chepo. It is currently not separated into districts, nor does it have a designated capital. Its area is 2,318.8 km2 and is located near the Bayano River.

The colorful environment in Madugandí is wrapped in mystery. It is a visual delight to view hundreds of homes made from wood and palm leaves, with colorfully dressed Guna children nearby. Unlike the Guna Yala region, little is known about them, since they have not been an indigenous territory for very long. That fact makes the town even more calm, with little influence from the modern world.

In this area you can purchase an authentic mola, handmade by the Guna women. This traditional art has received worldwide recognition for their beauty and quality of handicraft.

Guna Yala is an indigenous territory in Panama, inhabited by the Guna ethnic group. The region was formerly called San Blas, until 1998, and Kuna Yala until 2010. Its capital is El Porvenir. It borders the Caribbean Sea to the north, the province of Darién and the Emberá Wounnan indigenous territory to the south, Colombia to the east and the province of Colón to the west.

Guna Yala in the Guna language means "Guna Land" or "Guna Mountain." The area was formerly known as San Blas, and later on as Kuna Yala, but was changed again in October 2011 when the Panama Government recognized the petition of the Guna people that in their native language it was not equivalent to the letter "K" and that the official name should be "Guna Yala".
