Quiver Tree Forest, located near Keetmanshoop in Namibia, is a striking natural attraction featuring a dense concentration of quiver trees, also known as Aloe dichotoma. These unique, aloe-like trees can grow up to nine meters tall and are named for their traditional use by the indigenous San people, who fashioned their hollow branches into quivers for arrows. The forest, declared a national monument, offers visitors an otherworldly landscape with its towering, sculptural trees and is especially enchanting at sunrise and sunset when the golden light accentuates the trees' distinctive forms.
