A national park of Jurassic-era silicified wood has been built in northwest Beijing and will be open to tourists in May. Located in Yanqing County, the 226-square kilometer park is rich in geological relics. Geologists said abundant deposits of Jurassic silicified wood were formed between 140 million and 180 million years ago. The thickest of the wood measures 2.5 meters in diameter and the longest 15 meters in bole length. Rich in geological relics, China has been designated by UNESCO as a pilot for its world geological park program. According to the Ministry of Land Resources, China will build scores of national geological parks in the next five to ten years. |
