In Pictures: Gateway To The Amazon – Manaus

Manaus ChurchLocated practically in the middle of nowhere (the Amazon), Manaus faded from the spotlight after the rubber boom ended in the early 20th Century. The majestic Teatro Amazonas still stands in the middle of the city reminding everyone of the glorious yesteryears. This city still plays home to 2 million people or 50% of the people who live in the Amazon.

A walk through the streets on a Sunday shows that the city is still full of life, color and beauty.
