As you enter The Kampong, you drive through a magnificent specimen of Ficus benghalensis, the true banyan fig, which is 354 feet in diameter at breast level. The aerial roots hanging down from horizontal branches are constantly trimmed at about ten feet above the ground to allow vehicles to pass underneath them. Roots that have not been trimmed have taken root and formed massive columns on both sides of the drive. Several other species of Ficus are at The Kampong including Ficus religiosa from Burma -- the famous “Bo” tree under which Gautama Buddha attained “Nirvana” (enlightenment).
