When flying into Manaus -the largest city in the Amazon Rainforest- the sheer scale of the Brazilian landscape becomes apparent: Miles upon miles of jungle cover expansive river deltas and the surrounding flatlands, where the contrast of meandering waters and geometrical roads and fields paint an almost surreal picture. And after this seemingly endless sea of green, at the confluence of two massive streams, Manaus emerges from the forest: Skyscrapers shine in white and silver like an urban wedge between the black waters of Rio Negro and the earthy brown of the Amazon, which flow together here but won’t mix, adding to the feeling that one is stepping into an impressionistic painting.
