The Petrified Forest Park in Bali Alonia is the first outdoor visiting park of the Petrified Forest. It was created in 1987 and since the 18th century the area has been known as “Kiria Apolithomeni”. The majority of the fossilized trunks belong to the Taxodiaceae family and are primitive forms of the present-day Sequoia, which today grows on the west coast of the United States. To this family also belong the largest lying fossilized trunk of a conifer tree (with a length of more than 20 meters), as well as the large standing trunks of Sequoias.
