The rainforest is the most diverse and concentrated area of life on our planet.  The forest offers living trees to climb, or hide behind when playing paintball.  There are fragrances and odors you do not find in the city, and the power of Mother Nature is awe inspiring.  The forest is also where many literary characters met for intimate encounters.  Whatever your reason for visiting the forest, Scroll down for links to find more information about many of the world's forests, petrified forests, rain forests, jungles and events occurring there.
