The city of Belem is located on the banks of the Amazon in Northern Brazil. It is a popular destination with tourists, largely due to the stunning natural habitat of the area.

The procession of the Cirio de Nazare is celebrated annually on the second Sunday in October and is the biggest religious festival in Brazil.

A spectacular fireworks show and an exciting funfair are some of the highlights of the celebrations, which lasts for 15 days.

On the first Saturday of the festival, the statue of 'Our Lady of Nazareth' arrives via a river procession from Icoaraci, a destination located to the North of Belem. The icon is carried through the streets to the city’s cathedral.
