Rubber Plantation Museum
Vila Paraรญso is a museum unlike any you’ve ever seen, starting with the access to it. There are no streets or roads nearby, only water and forest surround the wooden building on the banks of the Rio Negro. The museum recreates a rubber plantation that actually existed 600 kilometers from Manaus, during the golden age of rubber in the Amazon.
