Owner and idealizer of Ariau
Amazon Towers Hotel
"It is true that the image can capture the photographer's ideas
about reality, but it cannot capture reality itself. Reality will always remain within
its place of origin. In order to acquire real a experience with nature, one must
participate in person so that through his eyes he can achieve, in his mind and in his
heart, a true assimilation of life in the wilderness."
(Excerpt from the book Amazonian Emotions published by Dr. Ritta with photos by Leonide Principe)
You need at least, a 3 days stay, to be able to get a minimum of the local atmosphere, to visit a native's village, to go fishing for piranhas, to see the mighty rainbows after the soft and warm rain, to watch the birds at sunset, to go out at night listening the amazing sounds, visiting alligator caymans, apart from all the day by day routines.
Everybody has to come to the amazon at least once in their
lives, to feel what i am not able to put in writing and wich
is more, much more...
We invite you to visit our website and would be more than happy to hear from you.
