The largest one you can see in Sri Lanka
It's a famous iconic for mannar. It's a very ancient tree.
Biobop tree. First time saw this tree.
Impressive.
Baobab (Adansonia digitata) is native to Africa, Madagascar and Australia. Believed to be brought to Sri Lanka by the Arab traders around 1300 AD. This specific tree is believed to be around 700 years old. Steps must be taken to preserve this miracle of nature.
This tree is famous as Asia's largest tree. Weather slightly hot, but nice place!
So much potential, not enough prominence given
BioBab tree is the correct name..
Big in perimeter
Wonders of nature, visited to Sri Lanka probably 400yrs ago and still living. Need to preserve for next thousands of years..
If you want to see a Boabab tree and you've never seen one in Africa, then you have achieved your goal. Include this on a circular tour of Mannar and it will be part of an interesting experience.
Sure
Nice tree to see. Amazing size
Wonder to see such a oldest and long living tree in Sri Lanka.
This place is located 1km away from mannar town. This tree was calculated 723 years old
Not interesting at all. Really small “BioBab” tree.
Very Big tree. If you travel to Mannar you should visit this place. We can see Donkeys around this place.
This is one of main tourism point in Mannar because this is the biggest tree in South Asia. This one has been taken to Lanka by Arabic sealers. In the Mannar island can be seen two three Baobab trees and those are not that much bigger than this tree.
Baobab tree it different from other trees. This place is closed to Mannarama town.
Spend around 10 minutes here, nothing more than a huge tree. But it is one of the major attractions in Mannar. Close to the Mannar town
Actually it's a Big tree.
Some people call this the "Elephant tree" simply due to the fact that the bark of it has similarities to elephant skin. It is said that this tree was brought to the country by Arabic traders and its more than 700 years old. This is the most popular out of the very few Baobabs in Sri Lanka. Well worth visiting if you happen to be around Mannar.
It is obviously the largest tree in these parts of the country and one of the oldest in the country.
