Dragon Trees Forest on the island of Socotra

It grows in Yemen and is sometimes called the Forest of Dragon Blood. The Sokorta archipelago itself is compared to the Galapagos - due to the accumulation of plants and animals that are nowhere else found. The islands have been inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List since 2008. The forest is made up of amazing dragon dracaena - long-lived trees, up to 700 years old. You can also see them in the Canary Islands.
