📌Canlaon,Negros Oriental.
THE BIGGEST CENTURY TREE🌳 IN THE PHILIPPINES HISTORY!!!
The Century Tree!!!
This century tree is also known as the "Balete" or "Banyan" tree. Scientifically speaking, "a number of these trees are known as strangler figs wherein they start upon other trees, later entrapping them entirely and finally killing the host tree." They are also called hemiepiphytes, Some of these "Balete" trees produce an inferior quality of rubber.
Because of its mysterious aura and sheer natural beauty, the century tree of Canlaon City had become the favorite place to hold the reception for weddings, birthdays, anniversaries and other occasions. The tree is located at the center of a huge park.
A few locals, however, whispered to me that they believed that the tree is the home of spirits that "rule" this area. The same story that I heard from my parents when we were children. Our old house was near the "Balete" tree or locally known as "Lunok". Sometimes we smell an overcooked crab and surprisingly we do not cook one. When my mother asked our neighbor about the smell, they told her they did not cook crab that day. Sometimes at noontime, we hear silverwares clicking as if some people were having meals. That noise emanated from the "Lunok" tree. Sounds weird?
Back to the *Canlaon century tree,the gatekeeper told me that at night, the century tree has become the dating place for some romantic interludes. I just hope the fairies will not use their magic wands to do harm to these jolly souls.
- this ballete tree is a place nice to relax with family's and friends.
