Before and after images of the 150-year-old banyan tree show it sustained significant damage in the fire, which raced through dry vegetation in the hills and into the town of 13,000 people on Tuesday evening. The ferocious blaze quickly incinerated historic wooden buildings and forced thousands of people to flee.
