Manaus, Brazil

Why Walk Manaus

Manaus sits at the confluence of the Negro and Solimoes rivers deep in the Amazon basin, and its walkable center tells the extraordinary story of the rubber boom that made it one of the wealthiest cities in the world in the late 19th century. The Teatro Amazonas, a Renaissance-style opera house completed in 1896, is the crown jewel — its dome decorated with tiles in the colors of the Brazilian flag, visible from across the city. The surrounding Eduardo Ribeiro neighborhood preserves grand rubber baron mansions and iron buildings imported from Europe. The Mercado Municipal Adolpho Lisboa, modeled after the old Les Halles in Paris, sells Amazonian fruits, fish, and handicrafts. The Encontro das Aguas, where the dark Rio Negro and muddy Solimoes run side by side without mixing, is a short boat ride from the city. Walking Manaus provides the unique experience of strolling Belle Epoque boulevards at the edge of the world's largest rainforest.

July through November is the drier season with more comfortable walking conditions, though the Encontro das Aguas and river excursions are spectacular year-round.
