What to do and see in Panama City, Panama Province: The Best Museums
A diverse multicultural city of almost 1.3 million, Panama City offers a lot more than an up-close view of the Canal. Shantytowns slink up alongside shiny high-rise condos. The Old City is an atmospheric labyrinth of churches, plazas and palaces. Fifteen miles from downtown Panama City, Soberania National Park is an excellent destination for hiking and birding. For a fascinating look at the canal, take a taxi or local bus to Miraflores Locks Visitor Center and look down on the traffic below.

10. Biomuseo
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 1,616 reviews
Designed by world-renowned architect Frank Gehry, the Biomuseo is his only work in Latin America and the tropics. The building was designed to tell the story of how the isthmus of Panama rose from the sea, uniting two continents, separating a vast ocean in two, and changing the planet's biodiversity forever.

This is a great museum to learn about the formation of the isthmus, its evolutionary importance, and the natural history of Panama up to the present day. The exhibits on several floors are state-of-the-art. The museum not only celebrates the wonders of natural life in Panama and its two oceans, it also teaches us about man's impact on the environment, the perils of climate change, and the need to preserve and protect the natural world around us.
