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!

We(a group of us) just got back from Colombia July 13,2018
We stayed in Cu’cuta and fed Venezuelans near the boarder where I was told was not safe and had no fear...

Looks wonderful,not how I expected the amazon to look like. With lilly pads, and those houses on stilts, looks asian rather than south american...
Chris
Interesting photos. Would love to hear more about the masked kids.

Thnak you for sharing these beautiful photos. I get so curious about amazonas, it looks like a heavenly place. Especially the bridge takes my attention. I've seen such bridges in many movies and it must be exciting to pass over it.
Happy New Year to you, your family and friends.
