Amazonas is one of the 32 departments of Colombia and is located in the southern part of the country. The capital of this department is the city of Leticia.
The department is called Amazonas because it is located in the Amazon Rain Forest.
I want to share these beautiful pictures of Amazonas that were taken by Monica, one of my best friends, who recently visited the area. Thank you Monica!

Lovely pictures! Since I read about the amazonas rain forest and the river when I was in school I always had the wish to visit it one day, don't know if it ever happen. The pictures look amazing.
Thank you for your comment on my blog!
