Kos Town |
The ancient physician Hippocrates is thought to have been born on Kos and in the centre of the town is the 'Plane Tree of Hippocrates', a dream temple where the physician is traditionally supposed to have taught. The limbs of the now elderly tree are supported by scaffolding. The town is also home to the International Hippocratic Institute and the Hippocratic Museum dedicated to him. Near the Institute are the ruins of Asklepieion, where Herodicus taught Hippocrates medicine.
