The forest with eyes
If you’re looking for a unique experience in the heart of nature, you can’t miss the white birch of Etna. This fascinating plant, with its broken branches, creates an illusion that resembles eyes and, in fact, the shape of a face. The Greeks referred to it as “the forest with eyes,” and it’s no surprise that many visitors felt a chill of fear as they ventured into this mysterious place.
The white birch: a height of history and mystery
The white birch (Betula pendula) is a characteristic tree of the Etna forests, known for its light bark and flexible branches. When the full moon illuminates the woods, the shadows created by these branches can appear as faces watching you, making the night walk even more enchanting. This phenomenon has always captivated and frightened visitors, creating an aura of mystery that surrounds this enchanted forest.
