A guitar-shaped forest - more than one kilometer in length - is visible outside the city of Laboulaye, Argentina. For years, a couple by the name of Pedro Ureta and Graciela Yraizoz discussed the idea of creating such a design. However, when Graciela suddenly passed away, Pedro and their four children planted _____ cypress (the body of the instrument) and eucalyptus (the strings) trees in her honor. The guitar was her favorite instrument.
