Bellavista-Nanay, Riverside market and port district in Iquitos, Peru

The Bellavista-Nanay market extends along the Nanay River bank, offering fresh fish, tropical fruits, and regional products from the Amazon rainforest.

The district evolved from a small fishing settlement into a commercial center, marking the northern gateway to Iquitos since the early 20th century.

Local vendors prepare traditional Loreto dishes in outdoor grills, serving regional specialties like juanes, tacacho, and fresh river fish.

The market opens daily from sunrise to sunset, with water taxis and mototaxis providing regular transportation from central Iquitos throughout the day.

The market serves as a starting point for boat excursions to indigenous communities, connecting travelers with traditional Amazon navigation routes.
