Beautiful Namibia
A fun fact about the Welwitschia plant, which will fascinate tourists, is that it is often called a "living fossil" because it can live for over 1,000 years! This unique plant, found only in the Namib Desert of Namibia and Angola, survives on fog for moisture rather than rain. Despite looking like a pile of dried-up leaves, it's an incredibly resilient plant that continues to thrive in one of the harshest environments on Earth. Its long life and ability to endure extreme desert conditions make it one of the most extraordinary plants in the world!
