Vietnamese tourist spends $4,000 to see baobab trees in Madagascar

Hai’s favorite spot on her journey was the Avenue of the Baobabs, a famous road in western Madagascar lined with Adansonia grandidieri trees.

According to World Atlas, these 30-meter-high baobabs are remnants of an ancient rainforest. Over time, the forest was cleared for agriculture, leaving the baobabs preserved by locals for their cultural and economic value. Today, the Avenue is a major tourist attraction that supports the region’s tourism industry.

“The dwarf baobab area had fewer visitors, so it was easy to take photos from any angle. But the Avenue was crowded with people, especially at sunrise,” Hai remarked.
