Pearl Tower

Overview

Pearl Tower is a 70-story residential skyscraper completed in 2012 in Panama City. Visitors go primarily to observe modern skyscraper architecture and see how contemporary high-rises define the coastal skyline.

Getting There

From central Panama City, the building is accessible by taxi or rideshare via the Corredor Sur highway. The trip usually takes between 15 and 30 minutes depending on traffic. From Tocumen International Airport (PTY), the drive takes approximately 15 to 20 minutes.
