๐ฑ Story of Sacred Fig
This is a Ficus religiosa, commonly known as the Peepal tree, located within the Guruvayur Temple complex in Kerala. It is a large, fast-growing deciduous tree with heart-shaped leaves. It holds immense religious significance in India, particularly in Hinduism and Buddhism, and is often planted near temples. The tree is known for its ability to release oxygen even at night due to Crassulacean Acid Metabolism (CAM) in some conditions, though primarily it is a diurnal oxygen producer.
