Welcome to the Jungle... Traveling to the Peruvian Amazon

The Amazon Rainforest is intimidatingly massive. It covers 2.5 million square miles, houses approximately 16,000 different species of plants and spans most of South America, stretching across the borders of nine of the continents' thirteen nations.

With an average depth of 351 feet it is South America’s largest lake by volume, while also being one of its highest at 12,507 feet.
