Miraflores Visitor Center

Reviewed By Emibru

A visit to the Miraflores Visitor Center is an experience not to be missed. Other than seeing the ships passing through the locks, and learn about the great engineering behind it, visitors can enjoy the video presentations and the visit to the fascinating Canal history museum.

Biblioteca de Boquete

The library opened its doors in February 2012 as the first lending library in Panama. The modern 3 story stone and glass building is a distinguished addition to the Boquete landscape. Free wi-fi and computers with internet are available, while the 3rd floor art gallery features monthly displays from local artists. Check the online calendar for concerts and activities. Open Mon-Sat 10am-7pm

Wow, am I thrilled that Boquete offers such a wonderful library for use by residents and tourists alike! They have a nice selection of fiction, written in English, that is separated for easy browsing. Other categories include books in English and Spanish mixed together. As a temporary resident, I applied for my library card right away. It was ready in just a few days, but I was allowed to check out books while waiting for the card. As a tourist I paid $20, but will be refunded that amount before leaving the area. Its a beautiful, clean, well organized library, with a photo gallery on the top floor. I'd recommend it to all! Super friendly, helpful librarians are there to answer your questions.

The new locks of Agua Clara are spectacular and it is a work of great importance to Panama, from here you can see the new locks of the New Canal or Panama's expanded canal, incredible engineering work on the Atlantic coasts, this place is 80 KM from Panama City very close to the city of Colon on the Atlantic coast, it is worth the trip and the journey.
