Thanks
to its extremely diversified geography, the island boasts several micro-climates
from one région to another, which accounts for an amazing diversity of scenery,
taking you from sem-desertic land to tropical rain forest. Successive gological
phenomena have left impresive landscapes and staggering remains such as the stone
forest known as Tsingy, as well as the canyons of Isalo formed by laterite rocks
from the Jurassic era. Top
