The “falafa” (split petioles) help to make the wall panels. The leaves of the tree are used to make blankets; The trunk is used to make the floor. The traveller’s tree is the emblem of the national airline Air Madagascar. It has been exported to botanical gardens in Mauritius, Congo, Hawxai and South China.
Sainte Marie, Pirate Island
The filibusters were on the lookout for any boat approaching the island; guns were their weapons of choice. If you visit the Pirate Cemetery, your guide will tell you the story of one of the most fascinating of them Olivier Levasseur, nicknamed “The Buse”.
