Summary edit
| Description |
English: The old trunk of what was once clearly a very large tree, amazing for this dry area, it is worshiped as a sacred spot. Datun Sahib is the name of a tree in the Main Market at Leh. Shri Guru Nanak Sahib Ji visited this site around 1517. The ancient 'sacred' Datun tree which many people believe is the biggest and the oldest tree alive, was actually planted by Shri Guru Nanak Sahib Ji during his missionary travels.
Contrary to the tree which is sacred, the drawing on the wall has no religious character, it is only a banal advertisement for a life insurance company. Français : Contrairement à l'arbre qui est sacré, le dessin sur le mur n'a aucun caractère religieux, ce n'est qu'une banale publicité pour une compagnie d'assurance-vie. |
