Top 10 attractions in Kos
Hippocrates Plane Tree
Hippocrates Plane Tree is located in Kos Town on the island ofKos, Greece, and is a plane tree with a long history and significant cultural importance. Although the current tree is not the original one from the time of Hippocrates, its history dates back hundreds of years, and it may even be 500 years old. Due to the erosion of time and natural factors, the trunk has become very thick, with a circumference of over 12m. To protect this ancient tree, support structures have been installed around the trunk to prevent it from collapsing. Hippocrates Plane Tree is not only a natural attraction but also a cultural and historical landmark. It is located in a small square in the center of Kos Town, with beautiful surroundings that attract many tourists and scholars. The square also features a fountain and several monuments commemorating Hippocrates' contributions to medicine.Kos · 19.8km from downtown

Stunning and peaceful gem in Kos. Ruins are very impressive!
Asclepieion at Kos

5.0
[Scenery] A very stunning elk park! It is worth a second visit. Elks are really the spirits of the animal world, very spiritual. [Fun] You can drive by yourself, but pay attention to safety and do not feed wild animals with food that you are not sure is safe.
