Designated and protected as a Natural Monument, Bijarim Forest is home to 2,800 bija trees, ranging from 500 to 800 years in age, spread over 448,165㎡ land area. These majestic trees range from 7-14 meters in x_height, 50-110 centimeters in diameter, and 10-15 meters in crown x_width, so this forest is quite a rare example of its kind in the world. The berries of bija trees were used widely as a medicine used to kill parasites, while the wood was used to make premium furniture and go boards. Forest bathing in a bija forest helps to combat arteriosclerosis, mitigate physical and psychological fatigue, and restore the body’s rhythm.
