Amazon
The Amazon jungle is known to be the largest tropical rainforest on Earth, and is mainly populated by local Indian tribes, as well as cities such as the capital Manaus, with it‘s impressive Opera House.
Amazonia compasses 7 million square kilometres throughout South America. Travelling along the River by ship, you feel as though you can almost touch the trees each side; and with beautiful destinations en-route, it is even safe enough to swim in at some points.
The climate in the Amazon gives hot temperatures and high humidity, with tropical showers also to be expected. The seasons are known to be rainy, and not-so-rainy! This is due to the difference in rain fall being fairly minimal, and the sun shining for approximately the same amount of time every day. As the Amazon Rainforest is set within the Tropics, it is known as a Tropical Rainforest.
