Baobab tree, Mannar
- An ancient Baobab tree believed to be planted by Arab traders who came for pearl trading over 700 years is still in live at Mannar.
The world's largest natural pearl bank was located in shallow seas around Mannar. It supplied massive amounts of natural pearls to the world over 2000 years. That was destroyed by the colonial rulers in the late 19th century due to over-harvesting.
