Everybody thought the Amazon was the largest rainforest in the world. Yes, but fewer people know that the Daintree in Queensland is David Attenborough's favorite rainforest and also the largest and oldest rainforest in the world. Blessed be the 96-year-old naturalist who once called this untamed region of northeast Oz "the most extraordinary place on Earth." Daintree National Park is similarly amazing with its huge tangle of towering palms, ancient ferns, moss-covered boulders, and trickling creeks going all the way to the Coral Sea while being continually eclipsed by its better famous conjoined twin, the Great Barrier Reef.

If you're fortunate enough to run into any of its current residents, you'll find that not much has changed over the millennia.
