Not worth it, mostly covered in scaffolding
Hippocrates Tree的点评
点评：Thursday 9thJuly we were out and about sightseeing and exploring the historic Old Kos Town
As we walked through Plateia Platanou (Square of the Platane) we saw this old tree, it is estimated that it is 500 to 600 years old. Due to it’s age it cannot be the tree that Hippocrates sat under in the 5th century BC. However, it is widely believed that the tree is a direct descendant of the original tree or another was planted on the exact historical spot.
It is also believed that Hippocrates, the father of medicine, sat in the shade under the original tree teaching his pupils.
The tree is a variety of a Plane tree, a large, tall deciduous tree belonging to the genus Platanus and is known for providing a great deal of shade. It is reported that it's crown has diameter of about 12 metres (roughly 39 feet) and is supposed to be the largest for a plane tree in Europe.
To be honest it was really not worth time to come and see the Tree as most of it is surrounded or supported by scaffolding.
On one side of the tree we saw one of the two fountains around the base of the tree. The marble fountain we saw was not in the best shape, we summed it all up.
Attached to the railings, that surround the Tree, alongside the fountain, is a small sign with the following words"-
"With Go'd's will, Gazi Hasan Passa restored the fountain from which water from Hippocrates stream flows out in Hirzi year 1200 (1786 A. D.)."

翻译：7月9日星期四，我们外出观光，游览了历史悠久的科斯老城。
当我们穿过普拉塔努广场时，看到了这棵古老的树。据估计，它的树龄在500到600年之间。由于树龄有限，它不太可能是公元前5世纪希波克拉底曾经坐在其下乘凉的那棵树。不过，人们普遍认为这棵树是原树的直系后代，或者是在同一历史地点重新栽种的树木。
另外，据信希波克拉底……医学之父便坐在那棵古树的荫凉下，向他的学生们授业解惑。
这棵树属于悬铃木的一种，是一种高大挺拔的落叶乔木，隶属于悬铃木属，以能提供大量荫凉而著称。据说其树冠直径约为12米（约39英尺），据信是欧洲最大的悬铃木。说实话，专门跑来看这棵树真的不值当，因为大部分树干都被脚手架包围或支撑着。
在树的一侧，我们看到了树基周围的两座喷泉之一。我们看到的这座大理石喷泉状况并不是很好，总之就是残破不堪。
在环绕着树木的栏杆上，紧挨着喷泉的地方有个小牌子，上面写着：
“承蒙上苍之意……”在赫里兹历1200年（公元1786年），加齐·哈桑帕夏修复了那处喷泉，希波克拉底溪的水便从这里涌出。
