Tsingy de Bemaraha, also known as the Forest of Knives, is a unique forest located in the Antsalova district of Madagascar and is recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1990
Unlike typical forests, Tsingy de Bemaraha features no trees but 70-meter-high razor-sharp limestone
The forest's distinct geological formations, shaped by millions of years of rain, wind pressure, and erosion, have earned it the name "the place where one cannot walk barefoot."
Tsingy Stone Forest became a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1990, celebrated for its dramatic landscape of towering rock formations and limestone needles.
Spanning about 595 square kilometers, the forest's awe-inspiring views attract explorers from around the world despite its inhospitable terrain.
The surrounding area includes untouched forests, lakes, mangrove swamps, and mesmerizing caves and canyons, like the renowned Anjohibe Cave, with guidance from park rangers.
Tsingy de Bemaraha provides a vital ecosystem for unique flora and fauna, including species such as red-fronted brown lemurs, white sifakas, and various reptiles and birds found nowhere else on Earth.
