Sai Ngam (Banyan Trees) In Pimai
At Sai Ngam, the banyan trees cover an area of
about 35,000 square feet and more than 350 years old. The aerial roots of the
banyan tree have grown down into the soil to prop up the plant and those roots
have turned into hard, woody stems that look like tree trunks.
There are many banyan trees with
branches and leaves twisted and are naturally woven as a big shed.
Inside the area people can walk and
sit down to relax.
A lot of tourists come during the weekend and there
are food vendors, selling local foods and drinks. Also, there are many small
shops selling souvenirs.
Next to the banyan tree there is a large pond with fish in it. At
the nearby stalls, you can buy fish food to feed the fish or you can buy small
fishes to release into the pond.
Pra Suphan Kanlaya Shrine and Chao
Mae Sai Ngam Shrine is the sacred shrine where people and visitors come to pray
and respect all day. The
entrance to the banyan tree in Phimai town is free. The gates are closed at
about 6pm.
