#120 of 413 in Wildlife in Brazil
Forest Wildlife Area
Covering an area of 5,500,000 sq km (2,100,000 sq mi), across nine different nations, Amazon Rainforest represents over half of the planet's remaining rainforests, and it comprises the largest and most species-rich tract of tropical rainforest in the world. With one in ten known species of flora and fauna in the world living within Amazon Rainforest, and hundreds of indigenous tribes, you could spend years exploring and still only see a fraction of what it has to offer. Don't let that put you off, however, you are sure to experience an unparalleled adventure in one of the wildest places on Earth.

Where to stay in Manaus

©
Manaus knows the main demographic of tourists who come to visit, and caters accordingly. To suit younger travelers setting off on their Amazonian adventure, the city offers budget options aplenty. You can find any number of vibrant hostels and cozy guesthouses, both in the center of town and in the northern neighborhood of Adrianopolis. For a wild experience, and perhaps a taste of what's to come as you journey into the Amazon, stay in a jungle eco-lodge on the outskirts of the city, where you can get in touch with the renowned nature of the area.
