You don\'t need to go very far to see how Manaus is quickly growing. These pictures were taken in 2007, 2009 and 2011. All from the sema place, the top of Adrianópolis Hotel.

1. Manaus is growing very fast! By Antonio Carlos Rix Sep/2008 The pictures you will see next were taken from the top of the Adrianópolis Hotel . (www. manaushoteis.tur.br) It is possible to go all the way around the top and, on propose, I let part of the protective blue fence show so you could sense the 360 degrees quick trip.

2. The number o vehicles on the streets of Manaus have grown dramatically. Almost everywhere you go you will face traffic jams – I went to the airport like 11pm and the streets where some how full of cars for that hour. I was here last year and I could feel the difference myself. This is actually a national trend because easier credit has busted the automobile industry. New building Coming Up soon
