With a population of approximately 2.7 million people, Manaus is one of the largest cities in the Amazon rainforest and is a major port and commercial hub for the region.

Manaus is known for its unique location and rich cultural heritage. The city has a vibrant music and arts scene, with traditional Amazonian music and dance performances, as well as the famous Teatro Amazonas, an opera house built during the rubber boom in the late 19th century. The city is also home to several museums, including the Amazonas Museum, which showcases the history and culture of the Amazon region.
