Tourists are measuring with their arms the perimeter of the "king of
cypress tree in the world" in the Bajie King of Cypress Tree Reserves in
Tibet's Linzhi County. This gigantic cypress tree is over 50 meters in
height and 5.8 meters in diameter. With over one mu (0.165 acre) of crown
projection area, the cypress tree takes 17 adults to encompass with open
arms. Based on calculation, this cypress tree is 2,600 years old by now.
