The Arayanes wood (Villa La Angostura)

The Quétrihué peninsula is the only place of the world where one can find an arayanes wood. This essence of tree indeed completely disappeared from the surface of the Earth.
Another forest of this type existed in the United States but it was victim of vandalism, after having inspired Walt Disney in the drawing of the wood of the film "Bambi".
The characteristic of the arayan (myrtle) is to have a bark of color grooves, and a hard wood like stone.
