2026 Codajas Travel Guide: must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transport & travel experiences (updated in August)

On January 23 local time, Brazilian President Lula officially announced that Brazil will implement a visa-free policy for certain short-term visa categories for Chinese citizens, in response to the visa-free treatment China offers to Brazilian citizens. This marks a milestone moment in the history of China-Brazil relations! Brazil is the largest economy in Latin America and the fifth most populous country in the world. Previously, only Ecuador and Suriname offered visa-free access to Chinese citizens. Brazil’s inclusion signifies a major breakthrough for the Chinese passport in the South American region. Brazil boasts world-class natural and cultural attractions such as the Christ the Redeemer statue in Rio de Janeiro, Iguazu Falls, the Amazon Rainforest, and the historic center of Salvador. With its multicultural blend, passionate samba festivals, football culture, and tropical charm, Brazil offers a unique appeal. This visa-free policy greatly lowers travel barriers, making deep exploration of South America more accessible. From Southeast Asia to the Middle East, from Latin America to Europe, the visa-free circle continues to expand. To date, holders of ordinary Chinese passports can visit over 90 countries and regions visa-free or with visa on arrival. Brazil’s addition makes traveling to South America truly a “go whenever you want” experience! Note: The specific implementation details of the policy will be announced by Brazilian authorities later. It is recommended to check the latest entry requirements before traveling.

Amazon Night Hiking Adventure 🌙 A 3-day Amazon rainforest tour! On the second day, we followed the guide into the jungle at night, and the thrilling yet soothing experience was truly unforgettable✨ Deep in the forest, the guide asked everyone to turn off their flashlights, and we were instantly enveloped by the profound darkness of the Amazon🌳. Without the light pollution of the city, we finally experienced true "pitch blackness." Occasionally, we spotted fireflies🪲 flying around, their tiny glimmers floating in the darkness, like a real-life version of a starry dream! Surrounding us was a free symphony of the forest🎶—the soft chirping of insects, the croaking of frogs, and the unique calls of nocturnal birds, all weaving together into the most natural melody. Listening to it, even our breathing seemed to slow down. Adventure lovers, don’t miss out! This nighttime rainforest experience is truly unforgettable!

my journey in the Amazon Rainforest starts in Manaus, Brazil…on a tiny boat with local driver I go along the Rio Negro followed by Rio Amazonas and in a day I’m in the largest tropical rainforest in the world (48 times the size of USA!). What’s the feeling? As soon you are of the boat you feel disoriented…everywhere vegetation, so dense that cannot even see the sky! And what is even more special is that daytime is so quite…looks like nobody is there, but as soon the sun goes away…the music begin! It’s like millions of the creatures living in the forest wake up and start chatting in different languages! unbelievable sound…that goes all night! my experience of living in the Amazon forest even for just few days has been a wonderful experience! and the villagers are very friendly:) #2023travelwish #lucaworldtraveler

The world’s first artificial intelligence art museum DATALAND officially opens to the public on June 20, 2026. Located in The Grand LA complex in downtown Los Angeles, designed by renowned architect Frank Gehry, it is one of the newest key cultural institutions in the Grand Avenue Cultural District. DATALAND is conceived as a “living museum,” where the building is no longer static but part of an intelligent framework. Staying true to its original vision, DATALAND uses the most advanced technology to redefine artistic expression in the age of machine intelligence. Founder Refik Anadol said, “A living museum is like a living being, changing every day. It listens, responds, and continuously forms new memories.” What does “living” mean? The museum itself is an interface that perceives, computes, and responds. It doesn’t display artworks; it is the artwork. To achieve this, the team spent 3 years writing over 10 million lines of code. Eighty-four 4K projectors and 1,577 LED panels create a panoramic art space with 1.5 billion pixels. This is not just “playing” videos; it’s painting with data. The inaugural exhibition, Machine Dreams: Rainforest, focuses on tropical rainforests. DATALAND aims to understand the rainforest as a complex ecological intelligence system: plants, animals, fungi, climate, humidity, sounds, and terrain together form a constantly evolving database. At the core is a generative AI model called the Large Nature Model (LNM). Its training data comes from natural history museums and research institutions worldwide, as well as field collections from 16 tropical rainforests globally—over 1.2 billion ecological data points, including images of Amazon rainforest flora and fauna, bird call spectrums, weather readings, and more—all transformed into a never-repeating digital canvas. Upon entering the exhibition hall, a 360-degree panoramic screen unfolds, with light and shadow flowing through the space, intertwined with bird calls, rain sounds, and various natural noises. The air occasionally carries the scent of plants and earth. But the most unique feature is that this rainforest “remembers” you. Each visitor receives a wristband that senses physiological signals like heart rate and skin conductance. This data is fed back to the system in real time, influencing the colors, flow, and structure of the visuals. Meanwhile, a small device worn on the chest releases 12 different fragrances designed by L’Oréal’s luxury scent team, dynamically switching based on real-time biological data. The same space presents completely different states at different times and for different audiences. DATALAND also built a digital memory system called Connectome, which acts as the museum’s “neural network.” Interaction data left by each visitor is recorded by the system and influences future generated content. The exhibition does not reset after closing each day; like a living being, it continuously accumulates, changes, and grows.

When you think of Brazil, is soccer and samba the first thing that comes to mind? This trip aims to show you something different. The 2026 visa-free policy for Chinese travelers makes this distant country suddenly within reach. Beyond its passion, Brazil has a natural sense of ease, like the local word “Saudade,” a deep, emotional feeling. This article skips the usual travelogue and shares a few moments that I keep coming back to. Rio de Janeiro: god’s view and everyday life Highlights: Christ the Redeemer, Sugarloaf Mountain, Selarón Steps, Copacabana Beach. Avoid the crowded afternoon visit to Christ the Redeemer. I recommend taking the first train up the mountain at 8 AM. In the morning light, with mist still lingering, the whole city wakes up beneath your feet. At that time, the view is so peaceful you can almost have it to yourself. Don’t rush down—head to Sugarloaf Mountain to catch the sunset. Take two cable cars up and watch the sun turn Guanabara Bay golden, with the silhouette of Christ the Redeemer in the distance. The Selarón Steps are a place that lifts your spirits. Chilean artist Jorge Selarón created these 250 steps from tiles from over 60 countries—you can look for a piece of Chinese blue-and-white porcelain. In the evening, stroll along Copacabana Beach, buy a few reais worth of coconut water, and watch locals jogging, playing soccer, and dating. The nights here are safe and lively. Food tip: The essence of Brazilian barbecue in Rio is picanha (top sirloin cap). At churrascarias, there’s a red and green card on the table—flip it to green, and the cowboy-hatted servers will keep slicing meat until you’re satisfied. Don’t miss the ubiquitous juice bars on the street—try the açaí bowl, a purple-black smoothie mixed with granola and banana, a local super breakfast. Iguazu Falls: standing before the devil’s throat Highlights: Devil’s Throat, waterfall walkways, waterfall speedboat. If Rio is beauty, Iguazu is awe-inspiring. Viewing Iguazu from the Brazilian side offers the best panoramic views. Walk along the boardwalk to the base of the Devil’s Throat—so much mist you can’t open your eyes, the roar shakes your chest. It’s a feeling of being struck by the power of nature. For the brave, take the speedboat ride under the falls. Put on a raincoat—the boat goes right under the waterfall, and getting soaked is guaranteed. The screams and thrill are unforgettable. Nearby is the bird park, where you can see Brazil’s national bird, the toucan, and colorful macaws. Amazon rainforest: pink dolphins and jungle laws Highlights: departure from Manaus, jungle trekking, piranha fishing, pink dolphin watching. Once you leave Manaus by boat and lose phone signal, you truly enter the Amazon. I recommend staying two nights in a treehouse or riverboat in the jungle. At 6 AM, take a small boat to see pink river dolphins. At dawn, mist floats over the river, and the pink dolphins surface to breathe—a surreal, dreamlike scene. Guides lead jungle treks, teaching you which tree bark can reduce fever and how to hunt with blowguns. At night, use a flashlight to spot caimans—their red eyes glow like little bulbs in the dark. Try grilled giant catfish in the Amazon—the firm meat has few bones and tastes fresh with a squeeze of lime. Lençóis Maranhenses and colonial towns: a full sense of time travel Highlights: Lençóis Maranhenses National Park, Ouro Preto. Lençóis Maranhenses is truly an “alien landscape.” From June to September, thousands of blue-green lagoons form between white sand dunes. Climb barefoot to the top of a dune and jump into the cool water below—swimming in a desert is an incredible feeling. To experience colonial Brazil, visit Ouro Preto. This World Heritage town hidden in the mountains has stone-paved streets. The seemingly simple baroque churches inside are covered with hundreds of kilos of gold carvings and murals, a luxurious trace of the “black gold” era. Travel tips 1. Visa-free policy: From May 11 to December 31, 2026, Chinese citizens with ordinary passports can enter Brazil visa-free for a total stay of up to 30 days. 2. Safety reminder: In big cities like Rio and São Paulo, avoid going alone to remote streets at night and don’t use your phone while walking on the street. When visiting favelas, always go with an official guide—do not explore on your own. 3. Language and payment: The official language is Portuguese, and English is not widely spoken. Download a translation app in advance. Remember to bring a Visa or Mastercard credit card; many places also accept UnionPay. 4. Local taboos: In Brazil, the “OK” hand gesture is very rude. If locals give you a gift, open it in front of them—they believe it brings good luck.

#kindnessontheroad Deep within the Amazon rainforest in Brazil, the Rio Negro (Black River) flows dark and mysterious, its waters stained by tannins from decaying vegetation. On a river expedition out of Manaus, we stopped at a small indigenous community belonging to the Tuyuka people. There, I met a curandero(a traditional healer/shaman) named Antonio. He was an elderly man with intense eyes, wearing a loincloth and adorned with intricate beadwork. I had been suffering from a persistent bout of traveler's diarrhea and a general sense of malaise, likely from the humidity and unfamiliar bacteria. While Western medicine was an option, I was curious about traditional practices. Antonio performed a limpieza(cleansing). He didn't use the famous Ayahuasca; instead, he used mapacho—strong, unfiltered jungle tobacco. He lit a cigar and blew smoke over my head, chest, and feet, chanting softly in the Tukano language. The smell was overwhelming, acrid, and earthy. Then, he chewed a handful of bitter leaves and spat them onto my arms and legs. He explained, through a translator, that the tobacco smoke carries prayers to the spirit world to remove "panema" (bad luck or negative energy), and the leaves draw out the sickness. He finished by offering me a gourd of caxiri, a mildly fermented cassava beer, which is considered a sacred bridge between the physical and spiritual worlds. Drinking it is a sign of respect and acceptance of the healing. Was it a placebo? Perhaps. But I slept better that night than I had in weeks. This experience highlighted the importance of respecting indigenous knowledge. If you participate in such rituals, do so with humility and an open mind. Never take photos without explicit permission, and always offer a gift—tobacco, beads, or food—in return. The Rio Negro isn't just a river; it's a living entity to those who call it home.

#kindnessontheroad Venturing into the remote Upper Orinoco basin, deep within the Venezuelan-Brazilian Amazon bordering Yanomami indigenous territory, requires meticulous preparation. After days of navigating rugged trails and river crossings, I felt the unmistakable onset of malaria symptoms: chills, fever, and profound weakness. My small expedition group was fortunate to encounter a Yanomami shaman, a wayuu, near a communal shabono. Understanding our predicament through our local guide, the shaman performed a brief but intense ritual. He crushed specific leaves and bark—identifying them as kaa-tepuand hiari—into a paste, applying it to my temples and wrists while chanting rhythmic prayers to the forest spirits, believed to drive away the "fever demon." Simultaneously, he brewed a bitter tea from another plant, instructing me to sip it slowly. While modern antimalarials are essential (always consult a travel clinic beforehand!), witnessing this traditional healing practice was humbling. It highlighted the Yanomami's profound pharmacological knowledge accumulated over millennia. However, it’s crucial to note: this experience occurred under strict ethical guidelines, with prior community consent facilitated by our guide, respecting their autonomy and privacy. Photography was forbidden, and we provided agreed-upon supplies as reciprocity. Visiting such sensitive areas demands extreme respect: never enter indigenous territories uninvited or without a knowledgeable, ethically-aligned guide. Support community-based ecotourism initiatives that directly benefit the people. Their knowledge is invaluable, but it’s theirs to share—or not. How do you balance respectful cultural immersion with protecting vulnerable indigenous communities during your travels?

#kindnessontheroad Deep within the Yasuni Biosphere Reserve in Ecuador, the rainforest floor is a treacherous mosaic of mud, roots, and hidden dangers. Wearing only lightweight trail runners (a mistake I won't repeat), I felt a sharp, burning pain in my foot. I had stepped on a bristle or thorn, but this felt different—immediate and throbbing. My local Kichwa guide, Antonio, immediately halted the group. Without a word, he pulled out a small, folded leaf, chewed it into a pulp, and applied it to the entry wound. Then, using a sterilized thorn from a palm tree and his keen eyesight, he dug into my skin and extracted a tiny, barbed spine from a "Poison Dart Frog" mimic or a similar venomous insect. He explained that the plant poultice would draw out the venom and reduce swelling. He then insisted we rest for an hour while he brewed a bitter tea from a vine, making me drink it to "cool the blood." He lectured me gently about the importance of rubber boots in primary rainforest, not just for snakes, but for these microscopic threats. Thanks to his quick thinking and traditional medicine, the pain subsided quickly, and I avoided a potential systemic reaction. Always wear proper ankle-high, thick-soled boots in the Amazon, and never underestimate the knowledge of indigenous guides.

I did a 5-day tour in Reserva Manu. It was quite an experience to descend from the highlands into a very unique part of the Amazon and spend some days there. I especially enjoyed the scenery—imagine floating down a river in the Amazon and still seeing snow-capped Andes in the distance—and the bird life, which was very unique, colorful, and abundant. Joseph was friendly, attentive, and safety-conscious. He shared a lot of local knowledge about the people, animals, and history of the region. I plan to return someday for a longer trip to see more of Manu.

Some destinations are famous for their scenery; Peru, however, draws countless travelers from afar because of an ancient civilization. 🚆 Take a scenic train journey through the Sacred Valley, slowly traveling along the Urubamba River. Snow-capped mountains, canyons, rivers, and terraced rice paddies flash past the windows, each scene like a scene from a movie. When the train reaches the foot of the mountains, the real Peruvian story begins. 🏔 Ascend to Machu Picchu-Cusco, known as the "City in the Sky." This ancient Inca city, built in the 15th century, is nestled against the mountainside and has stood majestically for centuries. Stroll among the temples, terraces, and ancient stone walls, gazing at the mountains and sea of ​​clouds, and feel the greatest architectural marvel left to the world by the Inca civilization. Standing on the observation deck overlooking the entire ruins, at that moment, you will understand why it is on the must-see list for countless travelers. 🏛 Explore the UNESCO World Heritage Site—the ancient city of Cusco. Once the capital of the Inca Empire, it still retains its profound historical imprint. Massive Inca stone walls blend seamlessly with Spanish colonial architecture, while ancient streets, squares, and churches tell a story of cultural exchange. Strolling along the cobblestone streets feels like stepping onto history itself. 🌄 Venture into the Sacred Valley, exploring Inca rice terraces, traditional villages, and local markets to gain firsthand insight into the Andean way of life that continues to this day. Weaving, pottery, traditional music, and vibrant ethnic costumes make the journey more than just scenery; it's an immersion in a still-vibrant civilization. 🍽 And of course, don't miss Peru's world-renowned cuisine. From Lima's restaurants, consistently ranked among the world's best, to creative dishes that blend Andean flavors with modern cooking, fresh seafood, quinoa, alpaca meat, and Peru's national drink, Pisco Sour, all showcase the rich and unique culinary culture of this land. ✨ If time permits, consider venturing deeper into the Amazon rainforest, taking a boat trip through the primeval forest to spot rare animals such as macaws, sloths, and pink pufferfish.

The Amazon Theatre is undoubtedly one of the most iconic landmarks in Manaus. Built during the 19th-century rubber boom, it has earned the nickname "Paris of the Rainforest" and is often described as the most beautiful piece of European architecture in the Amazon. Whether you're an art enthusiast or a history and culture buff, a visit to this theatre is an absolute must when in Manaus to experience its former glory and extravagance. Suggested Itinerary: Before you go, check the opening hours (09:00-17:00, closed on Mondays, Sundays 09:00-13:00). It's highly recommended to visit in the morning or around noon to beat the intense heat. Upon entering, marvel at the magnificent foyer and lobby, featuring ceiling paintings and construction materials imported directly from Europe. Then, step into the main auditorium to experience the world-class acoustic design and Italian-style decor. If you have the time, joining an English or Portuguese guided tour is highly recommended for a deeper dive into the theatre's history and behind-the-scenes stories. Must-Visit Photo Spots: 1. The highly dramatic main stage of the opera hall. Look up at the awe-inspiring dome ceiling painting that recreates the imagery of the pristine Amazon rainforest. 2. The colorful mosaic floor tiles at the "Largo de São Sebastião" square right outside the theatre. They perfectly complement the theatre's European facade and give off a highly exotic vibe—an absolute must for beautiful photos! 3. The exterior of the theatre framed by giant palm trees looks exactly like a European palace. You can get stunning shots even without going inside. Practical Tips: · The ticket lines on-site can get quite long, so it's best to book a guided tour (available in Chinese, English, and Portuguese) in advance on the official website. · Food and drinks are strictly prohibited inside the theatre. A smart casual dress code is recommended; avoid extremely short shorts and flip-flops. · If possible, try to catch an evening performance. The live atmosphere is top-notch and offers a completely different vibe compared to a daytime visit. · There are many street vendors outside, so keep a close eye on your belongings and avoid carrying too much cash. · Check out some of the unique restaurants nearby to enjoy authentic Brazilian cuisine while you're in the area. Overall Experience: The Amazon Theatre is a breathtaking work of art in itself. With its meticulously crafted architectural details, vibrant indoor lighting, surrounding plaza, and European ambiance—coupled with the history of the rubber boom—it leaves a lasting impression. Although it's far from the usual tourist hotspots in Brazil, you absolutely cannot miss this "Paris of the Rainforest" once you set foot in Manaus.

We spent six days with a group of nine people guided by Demetrio. We explored the Manu Reserve, alternating our time between a motorboat, a rowing catamaran, and jungle hikes both during the day and at night. Demetrio has exceptional knowledge of the forest. He identifies bird species with remarkable precision, shares regular summaries, and captivates with interesting anecdotes. We were amazed by his ability to spot wildlife at any time of day or night. He communicates in Spanish and English at a basic level. Regarding meals, the food was varied, delicious, and offered in generous portions. They also accommodate vegetarian diets impressively well. The accommodations were comfortable, equipped with mosquito nets, showers, and restrooms. I strongly recommend this unique experience, which helped us better appreciate life in the Amazon forest while observing animals in their natural habitat respectfully. Thank you, Demetrio, for this unforgettable adventure.
