About this place

Biomuseo is Gehry's vivid tropical museum at the entrance to the Panama Canal, using color and folded forms to frame Panama's biodiversity story. It is a destination where architecture and natural history support each other rather than competing for attention.

Trivia

Biomuseo is widely noted as Gehry's first design in Latin America and opened to the public in 2014.

Visiting tips

Check hours before visiting; the museum commonly operates daytime hours and is closed some weekdays. The Amador Causeway setting is worth pairing with waterfront time.
