This series of images focuses on the river port city of Manaus, Brazil. The population (2008) is about 2,150,000. It is the major port on the Amazon River for commerce coming from the Amazon region from all four cardinal points. The reason why our Latin American humanities class is focusing on it is because of its amazing cultural history and its centrality to the interior of contemporary Brazil.
