Bridge of the Americas, Panama canal


The Bridge of the Americas is a road bridge in Panama, which spans the Pacific entrance to the Panama Canal. Completed in 1962, at a cost of US$20 million, it was the only non-swinging bridge connecting the north and south American land masses until the opening of the Centennial Bridge in 2004.

Many thanks to Freddy again who sent me this lovely postcard!:)
