Bridge of the Americas

The Bridge of the Americas is a steel cantilever bridge with a graceful arch that supports the main span. It connects the two sides of the Panama Canal and is an important link on the Pan-American Highway, which runs from Alaska to Patagonia (with a break in the Darien Gap). It provides views of the Panama City skyline and the canal traffic below. Take a trip on the bridge around sunset, when it’s illuminated.
