Manaus Essentials

Manaus showcases the opulence of the late 19th-century rubber trade through landmarks like the Renaissance-style Amazon Theatre and the Art Nouveau Adolpho Lisboa Municipal Market. Its strategic position on the Rio Negro is marked by the historic Port of Manaus and the Meeting of Waters, where the dark Negro and sandy Solimões rivers flow side-by-side without mixing. Natural exploration continues at the Anavilhanas archipelago and the Bosque da Ciência research center, while the rubber industry's history is preserved at the Museu do Seringal Vila Paraíso.
