Museu da Amazônia (Musa) - institutional (english)
Museu da Amazônia (Musa), created in January 2009, sits on a 100-hectare area at the Adolpho Ducke Forest Reserve, in Manaus, a native dryland forest area that has been passionately studied for the last 50 years.
At Musa, one can find exhibitions, an orchid and a bromeliad house, a lake, aquariums, and experimental snake, insect, and butterfly labs. A 42-meter high tower provides a magnificent view of the treetops, unforgettable at 6 am.

A house of culture and science, of relationships and the celebration of diverse beings in the world. A place where humans and non-humans live happily together.
Amazonas Flussdelfine Botos in Manaus
Diese Delfine gibt es tatsächlich nur im Amazonasgebiet und haben ein seltsames Äusseres. Die Jungtiere haben eine graue Farbe, die älteren Tiere eine Pinke. Wir standen auf einer kleiner Plattform im Wasser, konnten mit den Delfinen aber leider nicht schwimmen, sondern konnten sie nur kurz berühren und beim Füttern zuschauen.

I had the dream to see this animal since I was a teenager and saw a Jacques Cousteau's documentary about the Amazon.
These dolphins are not confined. They come and go freely to this floating house at Novo Airão.

Top 10 Best Places to Visit in Brazil
Top 10 Best Places to Visit in Brazil
10.Sao Paulo -Not only is Sao Paulo the largest city in Brazil, but it is also one of the largest in the world according to population. Located in southeastern Brazil, Sao Paulo is known for its skyscrapers, gastronomy and robust culture scene. Although Sao Paulo is known for its concrete jungle, it is also home to a large number of public parks and even portions of the Atlantic rainforest.
9.Brasilia -Located in the Brazilian Highlands, Brasilia was installed in 1960 as Brazil's capital. Brazil's former President Juscelino Kubitschek ordered the city to be planned and developed into what some refer to as a utopia. Brasilia's modern day infrastructure is designed in the shape of an airplane in which each of its sections serve as different districts such as government, commercial, residential and cultural.
8.Fortaleza -Nice beaches, dynamic shopping and lively culture all make Fortaleza one of Brazil's popular places to visit. The capital of the Ceará state on the country's northeastern coast, Fortaleza is Brazil's fifth largest city. Fortaleza also serves as the jumping-off point for many visitors to truly spectacular beaches, rolling dunes and idyllic fishing villages up and down the Ceará coast.
7.Parati -A paradise of tropical forests, waterfalls, emerald sea and coastal mountains, Parati is a popular tourist attraction located along Brazil's Green Coast in the Rio de Janeiro state. Also spelled Paraty, this beautiful city is a former Portuguese colony established on the shores of the Bay of Ilha Grande.
6.Recife -Nicknamed the Venice of Brazil because of its numerous waterways and bridges, Recife is the capital of the Pernambuco state and one of the largest and most important cities on Brazil's northeastern coast. Situated amid tropical forests with many islands and rivers, Recife is a popular tourist destination because of its scenery, historic old town, beaches and vibrant culture.
5.Olinda -One of Brazil's best-preserved colonial cities, Olinda is located on Atlantic Coast in the northeastern state of Pernambuco. Perched on a picturesque hilltop surrounded by trees, Olinda's historic downtown is a treasure trove of colonial churches, colorful old houses, restaurants, museums and numerous artisan studios.
4. Manaus -The capital of the Amazonas state in northwestern Brazil, Manaus is an important tourist destination because it serves as a gateway to the Amazon rainforest. As a result of the region's flourishing rubber industry during the early 20th century, Manaus today is one of Brazil's largest cities, featuring distinguished landmarks like the Amazonas Opera House, and the Rio Negro Palace.
3. Salvador -A historic Old City, beautiful beaches, lively culture and one of the world's biggest Carnival celebrations all fashion Salvador into one of the best places to visit in Brazil. One of the oldest cities in the Americas, Salvador is Brazil's third largest city and the capital of the Bahia state.
2.Iguazu Falls -One of the world's most stunning natural wonders, Iguazu Falls is a series of magnificent waterfalls located on the Iguazu River, straddling the border between Brazil and Argentina. The falls in and of themselves are a breathtaking spectacle, but their beauty is all the more enhanced by the surrounding lush forest teeming in exotic wildlife. The gateway to the falls on the Brazilian side is Foz do Iguaçu, a big and reasonably safe city by Brazilian standards.
1.Rio de Janeiro --There is no destination on earth more animated and exciting than Rio de Janeiro. Located in southeastern Brazil, Rio de Janeiro is the most visited city of South America due to its famous mountains, landmarks, beaches and Carnival festival. Rio de Janeiro is situated on one of the world's largest harbors surrounded by natural attractions that include the Sugarloaf and Corcovado mountains and famous beaches like Copacabana and Ipanema. The city's iconic landmark is the enormous Christ the Redeemer statue sitting atop Corcovado mountain.
