Palacio de las Garzas

Panama City, Panama · built 1673

The Palacio de las Garzas (Presidential Palace o Heron's Palace) is the governmental office and residence of the President of Panama. It receives its name because of herons roaming freely in the courtyard. The herons were first brought to the building in 1922, by the former president Belisario Porras Barahona, at the suggestion of friend and famed Panamanian poet Ricardo Miró.
