The
Amazon
The Amazon is a great system of rivers and forest, which covers great part of Brazil and also neighbor countries. The region is covered by several rivers that are connected to the Amazon. The forest has a lot of secrets hidden and because that people say that “Amazon is almost unexplored”. Same studies estimate that 15.000 species of plants and animals have not yet been classified, including thousands of birds and hundreds of mammals.
The most famous animals of that region are the jaguar, tapir, spider monkey, alligator, river dolphin, and toucans, parrots and hawks. Plus 1,800 species of butterflies and fish like the piranha, tacunaré, pirarocu, and poraque. They are only found there!
The worst part is that most of those animals are captured and sold in Belém markets. Manaus is the capital of the Amazon State, which is located between Rio Negro and Solimões. They join to form the Amazon River. The city most potent symbol is the Amazonas Theater, a famous opera house. It was designed by Domenico de Angelis, an Italian, in renaissance style and built in 1896
