Things to do in Manaus, State of Amazonas (AM): The Best Sights & Landmarks
When you can trek through the rainforests in the morning and take in a tear-jerking opera at night, you know you're in a special place. Manaus offers a rich variety of nature, culture, art and dining. Explore the lush vegetation of Amazonian jungle on a guided backpacking or river tour, or sample the colorful bounty of the Mercado Adolpho Lisboa. The stately Amazonas Opera House was built with the finest materials, and inside you'll be blown away by powerful performances.

Visiting Teatro Amazonas is a must when being in Manaus. I do highly recommend visiting one of the free shows. We saw a modern balet inspired by traditional Amazon music. Get into the queue about 45 minutes before the show starts. They open the doors at about 30 minutes before the beginning of the show and there is free seating. As it is very chilly inside the Teatro, bring a sweater. It is an opera house, so I do recommend wearing long trousers and propper shoes - not only because of the chilly temperatures inside.

Visited the Church of St. Sebastian and St Francis of Assisi after our tour of the Teatro Amazonas (Amazon Theater). The church is nothing like the ones you see in Europe but its simplicity gives the church a special quality. On the walls and ceiling, there are many elegant frescoes as well as a patchwork of light-colored marble pillars and several colorful icons. The stained-glass windows are a sight to behold as is the blue-domed ceiling. A unique feature is the main altar which has a pedestal with two marble hands supporting it. If you go, be sure to look up at the domed ceiling and the crystal chandeliers. The church has only one bell tower because the second one was in the original design but never built. It’s important to be considerate of worshippers and not to be to aggressive taking photos. You don’t have to be Catholic to appreciate this church.
