Banana plantsBanana plants growing on a plantation. Each herbaceous trunk bears only one bunch of fruit and is cut down after harvest to encourage new growth from the rhizome (underground stem)
The banana plant is a gigantic herb that springs from an underground stem, or rhizome, to form a false trunk 3–6 metres (10–20 feet) high. This trunk is composed of the basal portions of leaf sheaths and is crowned with a rosette of 10 to 20 oblong to elliptic leaves that sometimes attain a length of 3–3.5 metres (10–11.5 feet) and a breadth of 65 cm (26 inches). A large flower spike, carrying numerous yellowish flowers protected by large purple-red bracts, emerges at the top of the false trunk and bends downward to become bunches of 50 to 150 individual fruits, or fingers. The individual fruits, or bananas, are grouped in clusters, or hands, of 10 to 20. After a plant has fruited, it is cut down to the ground, because each trunk produces only one bunch of fruit. The dead trunk is replaced by others in the form of suckers, or shoots, which arise from the rhizome at roughly six-month intervals. The life of a single rhizome thus continues for many years, and the weaker suckers that it sends up through the soil are periodically pruned, while the stronger ones are allowed to grow into fruit-producing plants.

Although usually packed with tourists, walking through the towering tunnels of bamboos is just one of those things that you have to experience for yourself. In the wind the trees crack eerily, and hearing this odd sound is a reason to visit in itself. In fact, this sound is included in the ‘100 Soundscapes of Japan.’ This is just one of the spots you’d add on your list of ‘places to see before I die.’ If you want to avoid the crowds of tourists, head over with your TripMates in early morning or during the week.
Visiting the Avenue of the Baobabs will give you the ultimate Madagascar vibes. The spot attracts globe trotters from all around the world. The spot is easily accessed by road, and in fact makes for one of the most beautiful roads in the world. It is recommended to have some driving experience if you do decide to take this route, as the road can get quite bumpy! The most beautiful time to experience this forest of sorts is at sunrise and sunset, when the trees reflect the colors of the sun. Therefore, it is one of the most beautiful forests in the world that you must visit.
This Deadvlei or ‘dead marsh’ makes for one of the most unique forests in the world. This dreamlike scenery of trees blackened by the sun against the dunes almost makes for an alien-like experience. The contrasts of the landscape also make this one of the best spots for photographers.
Home to some of the largest trees in the world, this beautiful park is also one of the most visited forests in the world. Some of the ancient trees in the park are more than 2000 years old, and the tallest tree in the park is nearly 84 meters tall. It is also possible to camp in the park if you make your reservations early enough! In case you need, we have some tips for your first camping trip!
Finland is the spot for forest lovers. In fact, around 75% of Finland is covered in forests. One of the most legendary things to do at this park is to hike Karhunkierros, which stretches out over 82 kilometers. Here, it’s of course recommended to camp on the way. However, you can also hike Pieni Karhunkierros, which is a shorter version of the hike. This trail is only 12 kilometers. There are plenty of camping opportunities along the way and areas where you can stop to make a fire and eat. Whatever your hiking preferences are, you can be sure to enjoy some forest meditation in Oulanka.
No one quite knows how the oddly shaped trees in Crooked Forest came to be, but our guess is that these trees just had a little bit too much to drink. If you’re looking for an excursion in Europe to some unique destinations, gather up your like-minded TravelMates and create a trip to some peculiar destinations!
