Visit Gran Gomero in Recoleta, Buenos Aires, Argentina

Gran Gomero in a rubber tree in Recoleta that is width of over 165 feet. The roots of this rubber tree are enormous. Several branches – up to 100 feet in length – are so heavy they need support. Since 2014, one of the columns was replaced with a sculpture titled The Atlas of Recoleta. The locals call this famous tree Gran Gomero. Apparently, it was planted by the Franciscan monks in 1800. Others claim it dates from either 1781 or 1791.
