380 ES - Garajonay National Park (1986)

Brief Description

"Laurel forest covers some 70% of this park, situated in the middle of the island of La Gomera in the Canary Islands archipelago. The presence of springs and numerous streams assures a lush vegetation resembling that of the Tertiary, which, due to climatic changes, has largely disappeared from southern Europe."

加拉霍艾国家公园
"加拉霍艾国家公园位于加那利群岛的拉戈梅岛中心,该国家公园中70%的面积覆盖着月桂树森林。在加拉霍艾国家公园中,泉水 和数不清的溪流使当地的植物得以茂密成长,公园中的植被与第三纪时期的植物生长情况颇为相似,但由于剧烈的气候变化,这种植被分布在南欧已经基本消失了。"
