Iquitos
Worth visiting!
A review of this place — 1 year ago
I went to Iquitos to build a church with Maranatha International. It’s supposedly the largest city in the world you cant get to by road. Only by air or water can you get here. It’s a wonderful city right in the middle of the rain forest. Not for the luxury traveler. This is a 3rd world country and Iquitos is chalk full of sickness, disease, and the poor and hungry. We set up a medical clinic in a section of town where some 99% of the population needed some form of medical attention. I witnessed everything from tooth aches, to scabies, to malaria. On a bright note is a really great experience to wake up in the morning on the Amazon, eat some plantains, and watch the monkeys and macaws play.
