    A banyan tree is a type of large, tropical fig tree native to India and parts of Asia, known for its unique growth process. These trees begin life as an epiphyte, starting to grow on another tree, then gradually enveloping and ultimately replacing it. It is characterized by its wide-spreading branches, aerial roots that form additional trunks, and an extensive, deep root system. Banyan trees are often considered sacred in various cultures due to their longevity and impressive size. Its scientific name is Ficus benghalensis.
