The Amacayacu National Park (ET English Time)

On my last trip I was in the Amacayacu National Park. When I was there, the first thing that struck me was the wildlife.  I had to get on a boat to get to the park because by land was impossible; too many plants.  This park is located in the Amazons, opened in 1975 and is the only area of ​​the park system that protects the flooded forest of the Amazon River so it is a so humid place.

I was watching birds when it began to rain and we had to take shelter with some natives already knew the guides. At sunset, we find a lion tamarin, was small and my brother almost killed by his steps accidentally; the guides said to me that this animal was the world's smallest primate and lived in this park with the world's biggest fish of freshwater, pirarucu, or something.

I could not see pink dolphins, but I could go through the canopy bridge, a suspension bridge of 60 meters located between the treetops at 30 meters high; The place gave me so much vertigo that i didn't want back. Still, I learned a lot and things that I never knew about nature, which became my best friend in this experience. I went to Tarapoto Lakes and i almost fell, but ... I do not know what I was thinking to go to Amazon and do not know how to swim.


I would like to return, but with less hot clothes, however, the entry is not the most accessible because we could not get a tour guide but as an ecotourism; the park is closed for tourist, but not for ecotourism. Also, I'd return for this variety of fauna and flora. I want to repeat that experience.
