Morning – To relive the city’s history, our tour visits the Rio
Negro Palace located on one of the main avenues of the historic
center, called Sete de Setembro. The place was built in an eclectic
style, in 1903, to be the private residence of a wealthy merchant
from rubber, the German Karl Waldemar Scholz. It became one
of the most emblematic buildings of that period, which marked
the state’s economy. Following the route through Paris of the
Tropics, we will pass by Avenue Sete de Setembro surrounded by
monuments and colorful facades of the period that make way for
the centenary Adolpho Lisboa Municipal Market with its
splendid Art Nouveau iron architecture, listed in 1987 by Iphan
as a Historic and Heritage Site. National Artistic, it is surrounded
by the smells and colors of products and typical foods of the
region, located on the banks of the Rio Negro. To end our Belle
Époque experience, we will explore Largo de São Sebastião,
which houses the refined historical monument of the opening of
ports to friendly nations, located in front of the Church of São
Sebastião. Finally, we visited the Teatro Amazonas/Opera House,
the greatest symbol of the golden era of rubber and the purest
expression of the Belle Époque, the height of beauty, innovation
and peace among European countries. Its incredible hall with 701
seats and three floors is formed by French iron columns and its
paintings on the ceiling portray the Amazon fauna and flora that
leave any visitor amazed and so we end our tour of the Paris of the Tropics, owner of so much beauty and culture on the banks of the
Rio Negro.
