Tangled Growth of the Banyan and Bodhi Trees

The tangled growth of Banyan and Bodhi trees, edited in the photo app Snapseed and then cropped square.

Both trees are Ficus or fig trees. The Banyan Tree is known as the Strangler Fig or Ficus strangulosa. The Bodhi tree, or Sacred Fig, is holy in Buddhist countries, and called Ficus religosa.
