Sightseeing in Ecuador

Amazon Rainforest

In the eastern part of the country, commonly known as the Amazon Basin, heavy rainfall and high humidity are constant features. The vegetation of the Ecuadorian Amazon is exuberant as is its fauna. Within and around the huge protected areas of the Amazon Rain Forest several indigenous ethnic groups live side by side, still living traditionally, each group maintaining its distinct customs and traditions. The Ecuadorian Amazon region is made up of six provinces: Sucumbíos, Napo, Pastaza, Morona Santiago, Zamora Chinchipe, Orellana.
