## About Giant Banyan Tree

This is the filming location of the film Liu Sanjie, and it is famous far and wide for a thousand-year-old banyan that grows here. The Giant Banyan Tree stands 17 metres tall and is about 1,500 years old. Its roots twist and intertwine, so a single tree forms a whole forest, rising from the earth like a huge mushroom cloud.
