The tree is said to have taken three steps around the nearby temple, each step has a length of 10-15 meters. Each step is said to take 300 years. The reason why the tree is worshiped by the people here is that it "walks" around the Goi Dai temple - a temple to worship a general in the Dinh Dynasty. (Photo: VnExpress) |
The famous banyan tree on the Son Tra peninsula, Da Nang, is said to have a lifespan of about 800 years. The tree belongs to the mulberry family, with 26 secondary roots clinging to the soil, each root is 25 m high on average. The tree is 22 m high, and the circumference of the main body and the secondary trunk cluster is up to 85 m. With an interesting shape, the tree attracts many visitors. (Photo: VnExpress) |
The tree was discovered in 1771 and registered on the list of Vietnamese heritage trees in June 2014. During the war against France and the United States, the Son Tra peninsula was an important base for the army and people of Quang Nam - Da Nang. The Son Tra banyan tree was chosen by the local defense forces and militia to be a hiding and gathering place. On the same road where the tree stands lies other historical attractions such as Ban Co, the radar station called the "eyes of the god of Indochina." (Photo: VnExpress) |
