'Giant Sequoia' in Belgium
The beautiful sunny weather  last Saturday made me decide                                                                                                                                                                                                              to go to a little forest, near a castle in 'Zottegem', a city located in                                                                                                'East Flanders', Belgium.                                                                                                                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     
What makes this small forest quite special, is the presence 
of one of the few giant sequoia's that can be found in the country, that has grown up to a remarkable size.                                                                                                                                                                                              These giants are known to be the biggest, highest and strongest trees in the world. The natural habitat of giant sequoia's is in 'Sierra Nevada', California,                                                                                                                                          where they can grow to heights of more than 90 meter (95 ft), while their                                 
circumference can exceed to over 34 meter (111 ft). These trees can survive                                                                                                                                                                                                     
wildfires and live on for thousands of years.                                                                                                              
                                                                                                                                                                                      
Throughout  history, travelers have distributed the seeds of these magnificent                                                                                                                                                                  trees in many countries of the western world. Although the size of the one                                                                                      I photographed Saturday is nothing compared to those you can find in California,                                                                                                                                                             
it's still impressive to see!
