The project is located in Manaus, the main city of Amazon state and a touristic city that gained economic importance during the rubber cycle in the 20th century. Many imposing constructions were made during the past century such as the Amazonas Theater and the Rio Negro Palace. The city also presents a stunning natural beauty represented by the proximity with the Amazon forest and the union of two rivers with different colors the Rio Negro and Solimões. Manaus has folklore festivals during the entire year, such as the Carnaval.
