    The Panama Canal is also known as the 8 Wonder of the World.
    Translated by
    The lock chambers are filled and emptied solely by the force of gravity; there are no pumps.

    It takes approximately 8 minutes to fill or empty a chamber.

    Typically, 101,000 cubic meters of water flow in or out of the chamber.

    The older Panamax locks use a towpath system.

    The Panama Canal is an artificial waterway, approximately 82 km long.
