Pipal Tree

Pipal Tree

The Pipal tree is considered sacred specially in Hinduism and Buddism. It is one of the plants that is said to release oxygen even at night. According to science of Ayurveda, Pipal tree has numerous health benefits as well. Generally we find it near the temples and rest stops along the foot trails in Nepal. I took these photos near a small temple around my neighborhood.
