Pousada Canoa de Tolda II

A piranha is any of a number of freshwater fish species in the subfamily Serrasalminae, of the family Serrasalmidae, in the order Characiformes. These fish inhabit South American rivers, floodplains, lakes and reservoirs. Although often described as extremely predatory and mainly feeding on fish, their dietary habits vary extensively, and they will also take plant material, leading to their classification as omnivorous.

Located in the state of Rondônia, Piranhas is a small town that's situated on the banks of the Machado River. The region is renowned for its breathtaking scenery, stunning waterfalls, and diverse wildlife, including the infamous piranhas that call the river home.

But there's more to Piranhas than just its namesake fish. The town is also known for its rich cultural heritage, with a blend of indigenous and European influences that can be seen in everything from the architecture to the local cuisine.
