The Amazon forest accounts for more than 50% of Brazils entire landmass yet is only home to around 7% of the population many of whom live a thousand miles from the ocean in the city of Manaus often referred to as the ‘Gateway to the Amazon’. Built by 19th century rubber barons the City is completely surrounded by the rich green vegetation of the forest, which is fed and watered by the 4,000mile river. Despite its remoteness it still boasts palaces, a market place, bustling duty free shopping, international airport and the famous Manaus Opera House.
