Morphology
The phrase is transparently built from 'banyan' (the tree) + 'day' (a day set aside or associated with something), so its basic meaning — a day relating to banyan trees or dedicated to them — is directly inferable. The 'X day' compositional pattern (e.g. Mother's Day, Earth Day) is common across languages, so a B1 learner knowing both words would readily infer a day celebrating or associated with banyans and likely outdoor activities.
Etymology
The noun banyan day may come from a local custom of spending a whole day under a large banyan tree, where people had picnics, told stories, and rested in the cool shade. So, banyan day now means 'a pleasant day for outdoor activities' and a time to enjoy nature.
