Yomiya no dai keikaboku, Natural monument in Tobata-ku, Japan
The Yomiya no dai keikaboku presents large petrified wood formations where ancient trees transformed into stone through natural silicification processes.
The geological site received natural monument status, marking its importance in preserving evidence of prehistoric vegetation that existed in the Fukuoka region.
This preserved section of petrified wood stands near the West Japan Industrial Club and Kyushu Institute of Technology, forming part of local geological education.
Visitors can reach the site via two JR Kyushu rail stations in Tobata ward, with Tobata Station and Kyushu Koudaimae Station providing convenient access.
