Impressive 500 year old tree with a trunk of 12 meters in circumference.
This impressive tree is admirable for its trunk with a circumference of 12 meters. Time has tested it a lot and it is now maintained by metal constructions so that it does not collapse. According to legend, it was Hippocrates himself who planted it to teach in the shade of its foliage, but in reality, it is much more recent. It would have been a young growth 500 years ago, at most. Even if the metallic support structure takes away a little of the majesty of this century-old being, it is still touching.

Le château de l'autre côté de la rue est de mon humble avis plus intéressant.
In the city centre Kos afternoon snack absolutely ice cream orange or orange juice served in the cafes located near the tree of Hippocrates. The orange is a fruit grown on the island is full of sugar and excellent.
