Iquitos, the largest city in the world that cannot be reached by land

In the Peruvian Amazon we find Iquitos, a city that has a curious record: it is the largest continental city in the world that cannot be reached by land. It has no connection by road with the rest of the country, we can only get there by plane or boat. About half a million people live there. It had its splendor between the late 19th and early 20th centuries, thanks to the rubber rush. At that time it forged a great wealth in its architecture, which can still be appreciated today. Today, the urban skyline is unique, full of motorcycles and with a great connection to the river. It has even been called the Venice of the Amazon, as it has sought to adapt to the rising rivers. But that nickname has also been used by Iceland. It is located one day by boat, on the triple border with Brazil and Colombia, in front of the cities of Tabatinga and Leticia. Iquitos witnessed one of the most incredible filming in the history of cinema. The German Werner Herzog filmed Fitzcarraldo (1982), starring Klaus Kinski. Filming delays prevented Mick Jagger from appearing in the film. The initial 40% had to be filmed again, but the Rolling Stones singer had to go on tour. We especially thank Roberto Lorenzo and Santiago Saint Pierre for their collaboration in this video. 🌎 Un Mundo Inmenso Singularities of our planet ✅ Subscribe! https://bit.ly/2POYtLu 🌟 Become a member! https://bit.ly/2YrLbf8 🔥 Follow us:   / unmundoinmenso     / unmundoinmenso     / mundoinmenso   Sources and credits: https://pastebin.com/Bku9k3fR
