Madagascar

Madagascar - the Red Island - is an unclassifiable country. To understand it properly, you have to leave behind the landmarks you've acquired elsewhere in Africa. With its infinite variety of landscapes and faces, peoples and customs, this island that has taken on the shape of a continent is the promise of several journeys at once. Separated from Africa millions of years ago, it is home to some of the world's most unique species of plants and animals, including the famous lemurs and strangely shaped baobabs that seem to have grown in an unusual direction, with their roots planted in the sky. Madagascar is also the land of the ancestors, where fascinating ceremonies are still practiced, inherited from the various settlements that came here from Asia and Africa.
