Entertainment in The Amazon

  1. Cine Rio

    Palmas’s one and only movie theater isn’t much to rave about, with just three screens showing none-too-recent Hollywood flicks. It’s located in a somewhat moribund amusement center, down a no-name street just east of Av Teotônio Segurado between Av LO-03 and Av LO-05.

  2. Barzinho

    Perched on a small rise above one of Tefé’s main drags – with a tree growing through the floor and out the roof – this is a cool little spot to have a beer or two and listen to live music, mostly of the singer-songwriter variety.

  3. Restaurant-Bars

    Praça Bandeira has a handful of outdoor Restaurant-Bars overlooking the river. It's a popular place to nurse a few tall beers and contemplate the new pedestrian bridge, which at night is bathed in a hypnotic blue light.

  4. Victoria Video

    If you're in the mood for a movie, Victoria Video has 5000 DVDs of classics and, ahem, very recent blockbusters that you can watch in air-conditioned cell-like cubicles.

  9. Scandalos

    Located about five blocks from the border, this is the best nightclub in the region, attracting a young, sexy crowd dancing till dawn. Live music most Saturdays.
