This flower girl at Phoenix Marketcity is going to take your breath away. Phoenix Marketcity brings stilt walkers to do a Mystrees act, a never seen before show in Bangalore. The concept behind hosting this activity is to create awareness about saving trees and reiterate the fact that trees have life too, and the world equally belongs to them.

What started off as a park entertainment in USA, Mystrees has come a long way. Mystrees or you can call it Mysterious Trees was launched in India in 2012. Since then the stilt walkers have been entertaining audiences all around India. Their engaging personality has attracted audiences worldwide as well.
