Nice.

This oliven tree is very old. We drove her by car. And that was a little museum there. And a branch from this oliven tree was used in the olympic games in 2004.

It’s a tree... but worth a visit!

Fascinating tree, amazing to think it’s survived that long! Area around the tree is well presented and although the museum is pretty basic, it’s worth a quick stop if you are nearby. There’s a small cafe next to museum, we only had drinks there but...More
