Explore the Majestic Kayu Putih Tree: Bali’s Ancient Kapok Giant
Kayu Putih is the name of a giant tree in central Bali that’s believed to be one of the island’s oldest and biggest trees. It’s a magnificent tree with a ‘fairy tale’ feel to it, like many other places in Bali. On some websites, it’s also known as the ‘Kapok tree’ or ‘Bayan ancient tree,’ since Bayan is the neighborhood where it’s located. That nickname has probably confused some people about the exact species since Bali does have a lot of great Banyan trees!
