What an amazing tree... The Baobab Tree in South Africa is often referred to as The Tree of Life. The baobab tree, often called the "Tree of Life," is a distinctive and iconic symbol of Africa, particularly known for its enormous, thick trunk and its long lifespan. There are several species of baobab trees, but the most well-known is Adansonia digitata, which is native to mainland Africa. These trees can live for thousands of years and are recognized by their wide, swollen trunks, which can store vast amounts of water to survive the dry season. In some cases, the trunks can reach up to 30 meters (98 feet) in circumference. ----- Is not Afrika the motherland, amazing? #BaobabTree #Afrika
