The world's most beautiful forests

For: Daniel Landa

I had not included it one of these lists "Top 7". I neglected the rankings, I admit, I forgot the selection of wonders. But today I want to return this section, travel the world as they did the squirrels centuries, from Gibraltar to the Pyrenees, without touching the ground, according to legend had. Today I want to return to the treetops, atragantarme green, lost in the woods and forests, entangled in vertical landscapes redwoods or impenetrable undergrowth of the jungle. And both the plant world that I come today to tell, I fit in in 7 destinations. Thus, I am aware of the excess, pero the comparator and comparator me fui a 12 around the world. And in all of them, I also found the man, living with plants and beasts.

1-Red Woods (California)

Torticollis guaranteed, mouths open to the wonder of a prehistoric world, sense of insignificance, vertigo spent looking at the tree taller and more slender the planet: the redwoods Reds California Forests. All that I felt walking through these woods, in silence, not to interfere in a world beyond our proportion.

2-Ngorongoro (Tanzania)

If the crater of this volcano is Eden on Earth, the open plain where the heirs of Noah parade, the outside of the volcano forms a dense landscape, where the traveler is surprised at the profile of the acacias in the mist. The baboons raid roads, with the same ease as lions siestean, flamingos wings cool and Maasai dance to invoke the rain.

3-Jungles of Belize

As the country section is, as sandwiched between coral reefs and Mayan pyramids that we forget its forests. They live crocodiles and toucans and their trees flies javirú. But also survive while Mennonites, with the desire to give back to the world, plant chose a jungle where wild rivers papayas and navigate.

4-Canaima (Venezuela)

Another classic of the great rankings. And the Canaima National Park is perhaps more Elvish world orchards. Its waterfalls give drink to the mahogany and Jaguars, its rivers are engulfed by weeds, its mountains as old as the planet, survive endless forests looming over bottomless chasms and.

5-Lake Inari (Finland)

All around is forest, is pure air, because beyond the Arctic Circle is cleaner world. The fall succumbed to ocher leaves and winter silences the rumor of men with the eloquence of snow. The lake will freeze and the forest will remain in place pending a spring that encourages ride bears and the bustle of the salmon.

6-Chiriqui Cloud Forest (Panama)

Home to the hummingbirds and tapirs. Mountain area is the invention of the tropics to escape the torpor Caribbean. Here men sow the mountains and the Black Panthers terrorize. Everything is as hidden among giant ferns and flowers, that here nature has lost the sense of the dimension.

7-Arenal Volcano (Costa Rica)

It's funny how the fury of volcanoes leaves a trail of life everywhere. It happens in the Ngorongoro and also in the Arenal Volcano Park, in Costa Rica. On the slopes of the volcano emerging tropical plants and in a fit desperate. Nature wants compensate for the destruction of the magma with the softness of the thermal waters and birds of paradise.

8-Lago Baikal (Siberia)

Again a lake, forest shelter. This time we traveled to the island of Olkhon, they grow, as have, the world's only conifers that lose their leaves in winter. Such is the climate of the Baikal, where just living the grandchildren of those deported to Siberia, not yet decide to leave this beautiful land of ice and solitude.

9-Bajo Zambezi (Zambia)

Concentra more African Africa, with indigenous grinding grain and crocodiles basking on the banks of rivers. I would describe it as paradise if it were not for the wild can turn into nightmare. Here live the buffalo nawa with threatening the lives of children and providing shade baobas the elderly.

10-King’s Canyon (California)

California again, who wants it all. It's not enough to hold this place with the Red Woods, in, California wants more and for that sprang the King's Canyon, with larger redwoods, although not as high as that of upstate forest. Here the excess is insulting. It takes a while to encircle a tree and it takes a lifetime to forget a place so full of giant images.

11-Araucaria forests (Patagonia)

The Araucaria, the mother of all trees. Its forests grow slowly, as long-lived as the Mapuche who inhabit. This tree is beautiful, branches arching gracefully, as if to start dancing. I will excuse the corniness, but well worth some lyrical this territory, that inspired the ancient Araucanian and still forming a major natural relics of Patagonia.

12-Amazon Jungle (Brazil)

What I want to tell Amazon? In the Amazon fit all forests, take place here every life and boundless imagination to tangle in his tangle of trees that never end. Only man threatens the rule of the plants, but also the man, as we already have here, is able to save the Amazon of our own species.
