View of amazon river

National bird of Brasil: Tucano
It is hard to see this bird as he always stays on top of tree.
I took this picture at zoo.

Amazon river from airplane, near Manaus city.

Formally, though, the union of the Ucayali and the Marañón form the Río Amazonas, which changes its name to Solimões on the triple frontier between Peru, Colombia and Brazil, and later changes its name back to the Amazon only after it meets the Rio Negro near Manaus.

Bellow picture is the meeting point of Negro river and Solimões river. You can easily go to this point from Manaus by ferry. Here is very famous spot !


There are many tours to stay in jungle on amazon area. Need 5night to enjoy the life in the jungle and at the lodge on the Amazon river. Surely there are a lot of plan of shorter stay program.
