The Boundary Hill Gate is the point of entrance for most safarists to the Tarangire National Park, Tanzania. Growing by the gate is this remarkable baobab, an iconic specimen of the African landscape. It is at least a thousand years old.
Some call the baobab "upside down." If you squint your eyes, you can pretend its branches are its roots.
Others call the baobab the "tree of life," probably because of its longevity and the volume of water stored in its trunk. Elephants eat the spongy bark for moisture.
Tarangire Park is famous for its high density of baobobs and elephants. Join us on safari and see for yourself.
