We went to see the Banyan Tree in Lahaina. The birds were singing and it was so peaceful just to walk under this massive tree. On Saturday's there is a local art show under the tree. There are benches that you can sit on and take in the sounds.

The massive tree and the courthouse building were a nice spot for just sitting down to take a rest. The tree give nice shade from the sun.

A little piece of paradise under an ancient Banyan tree, complete with benches. It is free, cool (in every sense of the word), social and magnificent. Coming off of a cruise ship? Hit the dock, turn right-you can't miss it.

this tree covers an entire city block. Great place to hang out or for a picnic. Has to be seen to be believed.

The Banyan tress are really neat and these are really large that you can walk thru them. I really liked the courthouse and the historical aspect.

If you travel through Lahaina than you definately need to stop and have a look at the tree! Go into the nearby courthouse also for history of the area, and local shops that support the community.

This tree is awesome, takes up a whole block. It's a nice place to escape in the heat of the day because it's nice and shady in there with lots of benches. Also a great place to eat your gelato! There are signs asking visitors not to climb/hang on the tree. It's definitely something you should take a minute to... More

I wouldn't believe a tree like this existed if I didn't see it for myself. We brought our video camera to try to capture how big it is. It's crazy how the branches basically grow roots and start new trees that are all connected to the original tree. You have to see this tree for yourself. It's convenient since it's... More

This is a must see. The tree is over 100 years old and takes up 2 city blocks. They had many vendors selling the wares which seemed to be reasonably priced.
