ABOUT BELÉM
(BETHLEHEM)
Belém blends the comforts of a contemporary and historical city
with the majesty of the Amazon.
Why Belém?
Most Amazonian regional tours offered today are deep-immersion experiences of the Amazon Rainforest, either from Perú or the Brazilian State of Amazonia, focused on its capital city, Manaus. Obviously, these are perceived as highly adventurous natural encounters, which they are…. and, that’s about all they are, too. Not to mention the logistical challenges relating to travel, lodging, and the general discomforts one suffers along the way (perhaps some boa constrictors, piranhas, and other exotic creatures!).
Host city of the United Nations COP 30 in November 2025, Belém is easy to get to, and in addition to offering you everything you may imagine that’s wonderful and wonderous about the Amazon, Belém also has a rich, colonial and belle époque cultural history, dating back over four centuries. This also is the place to experience authentic, anthropological Brazilian cuisine, rarely tasted outside of the Amazon region. Let us take you on a comfortable, safe, magical, and transformative Amazonian adventure – it will be the trip of a lifetime!
NATURE
Feed your senses
The Mastery of Creation in all
of its splendor, awaits you here.
This experience usually results in transformation as a consequence of such a profound encounter with Mother Nature, as can be sensed only from Belém.
The Amazon region is, truly, other-worldly; unlike anything you’ve ever before experienced, anywhere else. Nature’s abundant splendor in this part of our planet, not only is rich and exuberant, but moving, and profoundly impacting, too. This also is a greatly challenged region of our earth, with numerous problems centered around poverty, neglect, and abandonment.
The world is beginning to awaken to a new Call to Consciousness to better know and understand Brazil’s Amazon region, which we suggest begins by experiencing it, comfortably & securely from Belém.
Come, and feed your senses!
SPIRITUALITY
Feed your soul
It’s impossible to separate Belém’s spiritual heritage from its cultural history, which it deeply impacts across varying faith beliefs. It’s little known outside of Brazil that the world’s largest Roman Catholic pageant, revolving around the sculpture of Our Lady of Nazareth, Queen of the Amazon, takes place in Belém, every year on the second Sunday in October. Called Círio de Nazaré, it’s also one of Brazil’s largest annual festivals after Rio’s Carnival celebrations.
There’s no way to sufficiently express the energy which emanates from a rapturous gathering of over two million faithful who accompany the statue of Our Lady of Nazareth along the 2.25 miles (3.6 kilometers) course from Belém’s Cathedral to Our Lady’s Basilica, that Sunday, every October. That energy continues to permeate Belém, throughout the year. The tradition of transformative powers associated with the statue of Our Lady of Nazareth dates back to 1700. She awaits you in Belém.
Come, and feed your soul!
CULTURE
Feed your mind
Belém is an extraordinary and culturally rich colonial city, founded in 1616 by the Portuguese; it’s the first European settlement on the Amazon, and gateway to the Great River.
Aside from containing many splendid, colonial architectural structures (jewels, in fact) – considering numerous, marvelous churches of varied styles and different eras, spanning 408 years – Belém also has an unusually rich Belle Epoque history and sensibility, dating to its glory days in the 19th century.
Come, and feed your mind!

COP 30
In November 2025 Belém will host the United Nations Conference on the Framework Convention on Climate Change meeting (COP). An initiative that was born at the 1992 Rio de Janeiro “Earth Summit” will be held for the first time in its history, in Brazil, next year, when the eyes of the world will indeed be focused on Belém. This is also an ideal time to visit Belém, as the city is experiencing a significant revitalization: restoring and enhancing its public spaces and monuments, in preparation for the COP 30 event.
