In July we tell about remarkable trees. Today you will learn about Hundred Horse Chestnut.
The Hundred Horse Chestnut is outstanding in many ways. It is the widest tree in the world in terms of girth, its trunk is about 57.9 m. The age of this chestnut is from two to four thousand years. And according to a well-known legend, Giovanna I of Aragon, accompanied by a hundred knights, got caught in a thunderstorm on the way to Etna and hid under this tree from the rain. No tree in the world has ever hidden so many knights. Yes, what can I say, most did not hide a single knight from the rain, and here a hundred at once.
