Bicycle tree

Whoever got on this bike definitely
reached the end of the road.

No one knows how these wheels
got stuck in a tree, and the
mystery still drives locals

totally bonkers years later.

The tree appears to have grown
around the bike, but many argue
the tree could not have lifted the
bike from the ground because trees
grow from the top, not the trunk.

TEMPLE TREES

The Buddhist temples of Angkor Wat
in Cambodia are a stunning structural
spectacle, but trees are the star
attraction at one crumbling temple.
Ta Prohm is a fusion of nature and
architecture, where the great roots
of silk cotton and strangler fig trees
grow through the ruined roof.
