Amazon Theatre, Brazil The theatre was built by the famous Italian masters. That’s why there is no secret why the building in a tropical area is made in an Italian Renaissance style. Almost all materials were transported from Italia because only there it was possible to get rare marble. The building has an outstanding cupola. For its decoration, it was used about 36 000 colourful ceramic tiles. These decorative tiles were painted in Brazilian flag colours.

The inner decoration of the theatre also adores for its luxury. The walls and ceilings are decorated with wonderful frescos. They belong to the hand of a famous Italian artist Domenico de Angelis the Younger. The ceilings are also decorated with marvellous chandeliers. All 200 chandeliers were brought from Italy too. The great theatre is able to seat 700 people. If you are not a fan of operas, visit this theatre, you won’t regret. Next - El Escorial Monastery
