Follow the straight path through the picturesque landscape of Neo Chorio, Akamas, Southern Cyprus, where Ceratonia siliqua, or carob trees, flourish. These ancient trees, also known as locust bean trees, have been a staple in Mediterranean diets for centuries. Their sweet, edible pods have a taste reminiscent of liquorice, making them a popular and natural alternative to this beloved sweetener. This image (Picture No. 11073851) captures the beauty and abundance of these trees, overlooking the crystal-clear waters of the Mediterranean Sea. A historical nod to the past, the Carob Tree (Ceratonia siliqua) has also been a significant part of Tenerife's landscape since the late 1800s, as depicted in Picture No. 11073850. The carob bean tree continues to provide nourishment and delight, offering a taste of the Mediterranean's rich history and natural bounty.
