Covering more than 14.493 square meters, the tree is the widest in the world. It is so large that it covers more ground than the average Wal-Mart.No one is quite sure exactly how old the Great Banyan Tree is due to a lack of official records, but experts guess that the tree is at least 250 years old. The earliest references to the tree have been found in travel writing dating all the way back to the 19th century. Over the years, the tree has gone through a lot. Not only has it survived 2 major disasters in 1864 and 1867, but its main trunk was also infected with a deadly disease. This infection meant that the main trunk of the tree needed to be removed inl925.Despite going through such a major surgery, the Great Banyan Tree proved resilient (能复 原 的 ) and continued to grow. This is thanks to thousands of roots that grow from the tree's branches and go into the ground. This is what gives the impression of a full forest rather than a single tree.Taking care of this huge tree is so difficult that it takes a 13-member team. Not only do they ensure the tree stays healthy, but they also "train" the roots to grow correctly.In Indian culture, banyan trees are among the most venerated.

According to Conrad King, the researcher who carried out the review, "more than any other senses, the sense of smell goes through the logical part of the brain and acts on the systems concerned with feelings. This is why the smell of baking bread can destroy the best intentions of a dieter.?Smell,whichdictates (决定 Jtheunbelievablecomplexityoffoodtastes, hasalwaysbeen the least understood of our senses.
