The most striking addition to Mexico City’s transit landscape is its network of cable car lines, known as Cablebús. A three-year-old aerial cable car system is transforming Mexico City’s transportation network and making the trip into the central city faster and easier.

The aerial transport system in Mexico City isn’t moving people to popular tourist destinations like Zocalo Square or Bellas Artes Palace. Instead, the gondolas’ primary purpose is to transport people from isolated working-class neighborhoods to other transportation systems, such as the subway, which connect them to work, school, hospitals, and other necessities.

The banyan fig tree is famous for its aerial roots, which sprout from branches and eventually reach the soil. In India, the Banyan Tree is considered to be one of the most venerated trees. For centuries, it has been likened to the shelter that God provides for his devotees. Other references to the Banyan tree come in the form of it being known as the “Tree of Life.”
The tree in the image below is in Kayavarohan and is believed to be over 250 years old.
