Just in front of the Theater, this square is a nice place to hangout. An interesting piece of history is the paved stones which is the same design (the first prior to Copacabana) as that of Copacabana Beach in Rio, representing the meeting of the waters. The monument represents the 4 continents of Europe, Africa, Asia and the Americas. Our guide mentioned that Oceania was not discovered at that time, hence not depicted.

One of the highlights of our tour in Manaus was visiting the indigenous village of the Dessanos and Tucanos groups. We were warmly welcomed by the chief (?) and others. Dressed in traditional wear such as feathered headdresses and body and face paint, we were introduced to their rituals. After a welcoming introduction, we were invited into their traditional thatched-roof building where we witnessed dancing, playing of musical instruments, and chanting of Amazonian songs. Following their demonstration, we were invited to participate in dancing with the villagers. the We were able to walk around the property to see their communal dining area, sleeping arrangements, and their homes. Be sure to taste the coffee if it is available in the dining hall - very delicious. Around the meeting hall you will find local crafts for sale. From the water to the meeting house, you have to walk across a rickety board and then it is a relatively steep walk. This may be a problem with those with mobility issues. Definite must visit.
