Greet The Great Banyan

If your tiny tots haven’t seen the grand old banyan tree of the city then they ain’t seen nothing yet. Set a green play date this Friendship Day for your bubs, and take them to the Indian Botanical Garden to meet and greet the oldest citizen of the city, the Great Banyan Tree. It has been in the Guinness Book of World Records for having the largest canopy and covering the widest circumference. And it keeps walking! (Er, growing!). With the prop roots as its legs, the Great Banyan Tree is heading eastward and always threatening to cross fences built around it. Many a fauna, including mongoose, jackals and birds, have made the tree their home. Your little ones would love to stand under its shade and experience its enormity.
