An offbeat attraction, this ancient baobab tree was allegedly planted by Arab traders. It has a circumference of 20m and is believed to be over 700 years old. In Africa the baobab is sometimes called the upside-down tree (because its branches look like roots); locals in Mannar refer to it as the ali gaha (elephant tree) since its tough, gnarled bark resembles the skin of an elephant. It's 1.2km northeast of the town centre. If you are traveling mannar i suggest everyone should visit this place to look at this giant tree.. and we were lucky that we met an amazing person who told us the story behind this tree..I hope you too will get that chance if you visit this place.
