Description
Amazonas is a department located in the southern part of Colombia. It is bordered by Brazil to the south and east, and Peru to the west. The capital city of Amazonas is Leticia, which serves as a vital commercial and tourism hub in the region, offering access to the vast Amazon rainforest and its biodiversity.
The region is known for its rich indigenous cultural heritage, with several indigenous groups, including the Tikuna, Huitoto, and Yagua, inhabiting the area. These communities maintain traditional lifestyles and practices, contributing to the cultural diversity of Amazonas. The local economy largely relies on agriculture, fishing, and tourism.
Amazonas is famous for its stunning natural landscapes, featuring dense jungles, rivers, and numerous wildlife species. The Amazon River, one of the longest rivers in the world, flows through this department, providing opportunities for eco-tourism and adventure activities, such as river cruises and wildlife observation.
