You would find the most diverse place on the planet. most of hte species that exist in the world live in the tropical rainforests. That is why if they are destroyed, not only would we lose the biggest contributor to the oxygen supply, but all the flora and fauna as well.
The trees would be immense and from an aerial view, the foliage would be so thick (the canopy) that it would be impossible to see the floor of the forest. There is hardly any vegetation that live on the forest floor because the soil is so poor.
The weather would be very humid because most of the rainforests are nearer to the equator, which has warm, humid weather.
