    Wouldnt recommend, specially as it is a rip off for tourists. You can see old walls in any country but they are unlikely to charge you a different price than a local in other places.

    Very expensive $15 for what you see. But the free ruin at the door and the artist center are worth the visits.

    Good small museum, fun walking through the old foundations and structures. Could be a neat opportunity for augmented reality to visualize full buildings and events.

    (Translated by Google) Good plan in Panama. The museum must be visited, it is good (the last Sunday of the month is open day). The bookstore has excellent books, mainly if you want to know the history of Panama, but you will find everything. There are very interesting temporary exhibitions on the second floor, above the bookstore. (Original) Buen plan en Panamá. El museo debe visitarse, es bueno (el último domingo del mes es jornada de puertas abiertas).

    Not very well marked. Temporary exhibit is closed. No Wi-Fi. Once you get in, it gets better. The museum and ruins are much better. Would love a little more attention on proper signage and investment into the entrance area.
