Trip Moments in Iquitos

Thailand and the Maldives have very romantic net red floating houses, but in Iquitos, Peru, Colombia, and Brazil, the Belm floating area is not so romantic. It was once written by American writer Chikas. In the book Equator, I read the introduction of the relevant residential areas. In order to see their real life, I ran to the dock of the Amazon River and found a child rowing me to the floating house. There are thousands of people living in the 
Belem water shack area. They live in a floating house on the water. At about 7 o'clock every day, the market sells fruits and wild animal products harvested from the jungle. When I first arrived at the village, It started to rain, which happened to be the rainy season of the Amazon, so the water level rose very high, but the villagers still drove the ship between the houses. 
Floating house households are connected, and they are firmly tied together in order to avoid being washed away by water. 
The fishermen are mostly in and out of the village. The simple style of the fishing village is vivid. The majority of the residents of the floating village are Peruvians who live on fishing and live in the simple waters of Ninglang. 
The dream of their whole life is to make enough money to buy a fixed house on the shore.
