The Panama Canal
The Panama Canal is on of the most interesting places to visit. Ships can wait up to 24 hours to begin the journey through the canal. It takes up to 8 hours to move through the entire thing. The Miraflores Locks are the closest locks to the city and are the first set of locks from the Pacific Ocean. The U.S turned the operation over to Panama on Jan. 1st 2000. It operates the same as it did when it was built in the early 1900's
