Abstract We use the tensor network living on the Bruhat-Tits tree to give a concrete realization of the recently proposed p-adic AdS/CFT correspondence (a holographic duality based on the p-adic number field ℚ p ). Instead of assuming the p-adic AdS/CFT correspondence, we show how important features of AdS/CFT such as the bulk operator reconstruction and the holographic computation of boundary correlators are automatically implemented in this tensor network.
