Banyan is a long-lived and huge tree and is also worshiped. Which is considered revered according to Hindu tradition. Although banyan trees are found all over the world, but the world's largest banyan tree is in India only. The name of this tree is recorded in the Guinness Book of World Records. This tree is known as 'The Great Banyan Tree'. This tree is more than 250 years old. This giant banyan tree is in Acharya Jagdish Chandra Bose Botanical Garden of Kolkata. This tree was established here in 1787. At that time, he was about 20 years old. This tree has so many roots and branches that only a whole forest has been settled by it. Seeing this, it cannot be inferred that this is only one tree, there are many.
This tree, spread over 14,500 square meters, is about 24 meters high. It is also called the world's widest tree or 'walking tree'. You will be surprised to know that more than 80 species of birds live on this one tree. In the year 1884 and 1925, the cyclonic storms in Kolkata caused great damage to this giant tree. Due to this, many branches were molded, so they had to be cut. Despite this, this tree is famous as the world's largest tree.
In 1987, the Government of India issued a postage stamp in honor of this giant banyan. It is also considered a symbol of the Botanical Survey of India. This tree is maintained by a team of 13 people, ranging from botanists to gardeners. It is examined from time to time.
