Sequoia tree The most imposing tree from Apuseni Mountains arrived at the base of Vladeasa Mountain more than a decade ago. Is situated on God’s Hill. Gal Silvestru, a Hungarian baron who liked to study the trees, planted several rare species in the area, such as sequoia, black pin and Zada The two giants staring nostalgia for more than 150 years on the snowy peak of Vladeasa dreaming of the North American lands where they were brought.
