Long ago, this tree was used to hold sacred items as well as hiding during dangerous times. But that use has long since left. Since TakiGakure has never once been attacked, the villages, and elders, no longer felt the need to use it as a fortress. Many of the higher up villagers and nobles, as well as the TakiKage's very own Tatsuko family moved into the great tree and too residence.
There are also many nice shops inside the "heart of the village" with antiques and nice things to buy.
