The Amazon
|
 |
|
The very mention of the name “Amazon”
conjures images of adventure and mystery. Designating the world’s
largest rainforest and the world’s largest river, Amazon defines the
word “exotic.” |
| The Amazon region of Brazil
makes up the northern half of the country. Here, in the heart of the
rainforest, is one of the main gateways to the Amazon: Manaus. During
the late 19th century, Manaus was a boom town for natural
rubber. Today, it is a thriving duty free center and portal to Amazon
River and jungle excursions. |
 |
 |
The Tropical Hotel Manaus, located on the banks of
the Rio Negro, offers 20th century luxury and convenience
amid the world’s largest rainforest. For the more adventurous traveler,
take a water taxi to one of the many true jungle lodges. Let GL Tours
help you decide. |
