Tall Banyan in Yangshuo
On the southern bank of Jinbao River in Gaotian Village, 7.5 kilometers (4.7 miles) south of Yangshuo Town, stands a tall Banyan with a huge and exuberant umbrella-like crown. It is 17 meters (56 feet) high and its trunk is over seven meters (23 feet) in circle. The dense crown shades an area of over 100 square meters (over 1000 square feet). The tree is said to be an ancient Banyan planted over 1,500 years ago in China's Jin Dynasty. With a limpid stream flowing at the foot of it, the great Banyan with its reflection on the calm water is very beautiful.
