Seven Miraculous Story Telling Trees Around the Globe
Published by A collections of living trees depicting life out of branches.
Trees have been around since the dawn of time. They are our eyes and ears to history. They have seen the being that created this earth and the inhabitants that walked it.
These are some of the most interesting trees I have found on my travels.
Tree of Christ
This tree is miraculously growing and resembling Christ on the Cross. The facial features are quite clear and the form of the body is astounding.
The Living Tree of Life and Nature
This tree is like visiting a zoological park containing hundreds of different species that will be preserved for hundreds of thousands of years.
Limpopo, Mozambique is known for the traditional sculpture and wood carvings that artists produce known as “family trees”. These trees are large depictions of various figures that tell a story.
Arbol Del Tule
This tree is more than two thousand years old, it’s about 40 m high, and the bottom of it, as shown on the picture above, is about 42 m wide. The Arbol Del Tule is located in Santa Maria the Tule. That is to the east of the City of Oaxaca, approximately 8 miles by Federal Highway 190.
“Drive-Through Tree”
This famous tree is located in the Mariposa Grove of Big Trees, a pleasurable drive of 36 miles from the hotels and camps in Yosemite Valley. The “Wawona” tree is 227 feet tall and 90 feet in circumference. In this grove, more than six hundred giant Sequoias have been growing here for centuries; sequoias are the largest and oldest trees.
Tunnel Tree located in Sequoia National Park
“Lady Liberty” of Florida
The Senator
This tree is currently the Florida Champion. It’s named after Florida Senator M.O. Overstreet, who donated the tree and surrounding land to Seminole County in 1951. In 1946, the American Forestry Association estimated the “Senator’s” age was 3,500 years old.
Incredibly, Lady Liberty has been around since Jesus walked the earth as man. “It was growing here when the Hittites sacked Old Babylon and ended the rule of the descendants of Hammurabi in that kingdom. That’s ancient! “

Frax, I’m not sure. Probably photo shop. I couldn’t find any info on it but, I thought it was weird and wacky, if not absurd.

Or perhaps, Lauren and Frax, it doesn’t look like Jesus at all and it’s just a coincidence that it happens to look a bit like a person. particularly given that Jesus never existed – not a single contemporary historian records him ever having lived, and given everything he apparently accomplished you’d think at least one person would mention him?

Interesting perspective. Either way, this was one of my articles when i was truly green to the whole Triond system. I was still trying to feel everything out. Hopefully everything since this has gone up hill.
Thanks for the comments everyone.

Really great pics Lauren. The carved ones were amazing but the ones that occur naturally are my fav’s. It is just so amazing how nature takes course. Anyway, another great article and fab pics.

Amazing trees!
To me & almost all my friends, the first picture looks more like a beautiful dancing woman than a christ on a cross? It seemed to us obviously feminine… I thought I’d say it just because it’s what we see, and it’s in a way nicer to think Mother nature grew this tree to a graceful dancing fairy than into what is decribed…
Anyway these are magical trees !
A friend will be using these ideas to draw the cover of my next cd album. I’ll post the link when it’s done!
Thanks for these treasures!
