Mangroves in Myanmar
The village that my family moved to when I was five was close to the coast, and there were many mangrove trees. I didn't really appreciate them that much as a kid, but in the last few years I have come to understand that these trees are very important because that have many ecological and enviromental benefits.
Mangroves are the trees, as in the picture above, that grow in murky coastal water.
