10. Question: How is the city of Manaus?
Answer: Manaus is a modern, rapidly growing city (1.4 million inhabitants). It is one of the busiest ports in the Amazon where cargo ships distribute their goods throughout the Amazon basin. Before the rubber boom of the 19th century, Manaus was a small, insignificant town. With rubber came rich and splendid architectural accomplishments like the Amazonas Theater (completed in 1896 and restored in 1929). In Manaus there are many interesting places to visit (apart from the Amazonas Theater): the Palace "Río Negro"; Floating Port; Municipal Market Adolpho Lisbon; Forest of Science; Museum of Natural Sciences, as well as the Aboriginal fair where you can buy many different articles made by the indians. You might even consider the Fish Market.
