Details About Parintins

Destinations » South America » Amazon River » Parintins


Cathedrals and churches play a prominent role in the city'scape of Parintins, reflective of the importance of faith in the citizens' lives. The scale is appropriate to a central Amazon River town of only 50,000—much smaller than the nearby state capital of Manaus. Parintins is located in the river itself, on an island of the same name.
