My second stop is the majestic tree of Vouves. One of the oldest olive trees in the world. It dates 4,000-6,000 years old. Dating olive trees is a bit tricky, that is why the large date range. It could possibly be the oldest olive tree in the world. Some trees in Syria and Palestine could be older and have not been dated. It is huge. I wish I could have gotten a better picture but it was dumping rain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The tree still produces olives and they press the oil in a ceremony every year. The strength, resilience and longevity of these trees is amazing. Being here woth it you can\u2019t help but to think of all its seen, all of the people who\u2019ve climbed its branches and drunk its gold gift.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
