Welcome to Iquitos!

Let ikitos.com be your guide to the Amazon Rainforest’s best kept secret!

	When you travel to the heart of the Amazon rainforest, you may not expect a thriving nightlife. But Iquitos, home to almost 400,000 people with an average age somewhere around the mid-twenties, is a surprisingly happening town!
One of the reasons is that Iquitos is a university town. Here you will find the UNAP, a public university with thousands of students, but also the UPC, the UPO and institutes like Senati and Cevatur.
And Iquiteños simply love to party! There is a surprisingly high number of events going on every day of the week, with street festivals, barbeques, rallies, concerts, etc. Night clubs and discos compete by organizing all kinds of events, like beauty contests and live shows. Local bands perform every weekend during night-long concerts at large vernues like the Complejo CNI or the Pardo.
Iquitos is also known for its open.minded attitude and tolerance. It has a large and active gay community, and gay discos like Asia and Adonis are among the most popular clubs in town.
