dodda alada mara : the great banyan tree



wild flower at "the banyan tree"





28 kms west of bangalore at ramohalli is this gigantic tree spread over three acres of land. the tree is also the largest in karnataka.
thought of celebrating new year in a different way away from the hustle-bustle of bangalore so decided to go to this peaceful place .
how to reach there
from bangalore start on the mysore road and after 23 kms on the left will be a dental college and just opposite to it is the road to banyan tree. keep driving for another 5 kms on this road to reach there. the approach road is not good at all.
no need to carry any eatable with you as there are quite a lot of shops and carts selling tea, cold drinks, cucumber, bottled water, etc...
