概要
クイックファクト: レスボス島には、世界でも最も豊かな化石の森のひとつがあり、1万5000ヘクタール以上に広がっています。2000万年前にさかのぼるこれらの化石木は、火山灰によって保存された、無傷の根系、樹皮、さらには年輪も備えたまま、直立して立っています。
見どころ: 今から2000万年前のセコイアの幹に、それが生えたまさにその場所に今も立ったまま歩み寄ることができ、その年輪は肉眼ではっきりと見えます。化石化の過程で、それぞれの細胞がシリカに置き換わり、化石化した木材に鮮やかな赤、黄、オレンジの色が生まれ、それは午後の光を受けて輝きます。
インサイダーヒント
- Wear closed-toe shoes as the paths are uneven gravel and some fossils require short uphill walks.
- Visit the indoor museum first to watch the 3D documentary, which explains how the forest was preserved.
- Bring a camera with a macro lens for close-ups of the cross-sections where colors and rings are most visible.
- Skip midday in summer when the exposed site offers no shade and temperatures exceed 35°C (95°F).
