Sofitel-New-York.jpg?width=531
Did you ever notice how many Manhattan hotel exteriors are often buried in the jumble of surrounding architecture and obfuscated by the frenetic street activity? Without signage, you'd walk right past many of their entrances without noticing.

Manaus is a large city with around 2 million inhabitants situated in the heart of the Amazon region and the point where the vast River Negro flows into the Amazon (known by the Brazilians as  Solimões until it reaches Manaus). The city boasts a short yet intriguing history, and one that is inextricably linked with the history of rubber.

Founded in the 17th century,  Manaus would never have been more than just another small Brazilian city if it hadn’t been for an American named  Charles Goodyea
