Iquitos Verde

AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :

Niels Ahrens created this stunning drone video of Iquitos, the de-facto capital of the Amazon Basin region which covers most of eastern Peru.  It sits on the great waterway, the world's largest by water flow, just upstream from where it's joined by its Napo tributary.  For a large city of nearly 500,000 (one of Peru's ten largest), Iquitos is fantastically remote - surrounded by massive areas of rainforest, it has no road access.  It serves as the primary jumping-off point for journeys into the heart of the Amazonian jungle.
