Cathedral of banyan trees
How long will it take for a small plant to grow as big as these banyan trees?
I took this photo just before it got completely dark one evening at the King George V Memorial Park. And I love these big old banyan trees and how they form a tranquil corner by lining up on both sides like pillars in a cathedral. If you know the Lord of the Rings you can easily guess which one is my favorite creature in the story 
King George V Memorial Park? Is it the same as King’s Park at Tsim Sha Tsui?
The lamp looks so magical!

Love how they’ve been kept as part of the city. In Vanuatu they are still used as a place of public meeting and are often the centre of civic life - they don’t blow away in cyclones
