Ta Phrom is surrounded by trees, trees, and more trees! There are two kinds — one kind (the larger one) is a silk cotton tree called Ceiba Pentandara or Thitpok called Tetrameles Nudiflora. This tree is characterized by its huge and light brown roots. The smaller kind is either the Ficus Gibbosa which is a strangler fig that has thinner gray roots or the Gold Apple which is Diospyros Decandra.
