Amazon Fish Market

'The World's' Alex Gallafent -- who is in the Amazon this week -- sent back this video of a bustling Amazon fish market.

The fish market is a riot of sound, color, swishing knives and ... well ... fish. The market is in Manaus, Brazil, in the old part of the city called Centro with its splendid architecture and big markets.

Watch this video, captured by Alex Gallafent, a correspondent on assignment in the Amazon for PRI's "The World":
