[The Panama Canal @thepanamacanal]

Long before the first official transit, the Panama Canal had already become a global attraction. In 1911, between 10,000 and 12,000 visitors traveled to Panama to witness the construction, and by 1912 that figure had grown to over 20,000. To support this early influx, a Canal hotel was operating in Corozal as early as 1906, years before the Tivoli became widely recognized.
