Omar Torrijos Park, Urban park in San Francisco district, Panama City, Panama

The park extends over 56 hectares with sports fields, walking paths, and green spaces surrounded by native trees and tropical plants.

The area transformed from an exclusive golf club established in 1952 to a public park through General Omar Torrijos's acquisition in 1973.

The Flag Monument, designed by architect Carlos Raúl Villanueva, stands as a national symbol within the park's grounds.

The park opens daily from 4:00 AM to 10:00 PM, offering a semi-olympic pool, sports courts, and dedicated areas for exercise and recreation.

More than 150 plant species and 120 animal species inhabit the park, creating an ecological sanctuary in Panama City's metropolitan area.
