This is an old peepul tree wich has become the symbol of my village "Jahangir Abad" ,Pakistan. It is an old tree and has many old memories with it.My parents told me that its age is almost two hundred years old.

My Grand father told me that it was existed as a young tree in his childhood.in the past all the people of the village used to gather and sit here with their families, under this peepul tree in the summer season.

After that second world war a muslim land lord "Jahangir khan" took the charge of this village and used the english residency as his rest house under this tree.A part of river passed near this location.it was very cool and beautiful rest house.

Alas! Now all the old buildings changed into fields,almost half village migrated after the partition of hindustan in to india and pakistan. Only this old peepul tree is existed now ,with its countless memories of his old age.
No villagers tie their animals here and throw garbage near it.
We should care this tree as it is a cutural herritage of this village.
