About Tsagkarada, Pelion
Tsagarada is a place blessed with rich history and culture. It has played an important role in the educational, commercial and economic development of the eastern Pelion, and today it is the main tourist attraction in the area. It has a real labyrinth of cobbled streets, paths and rural and asphalted roads that lead in all directions.
Its cobblestone paths and trails are lively temptations for walking, exercise, exploration, and promising surprises pleasant and exciting. Some of these are its idyllic beaches hidden in places of wild, virgin beauty, gorges deep and steep, ridges and peaks with spectacular views, two magnificent, imposing 1,000- and 800-year-old planets with 14 and 17,5-meter distances respectively.
Their view inspires mixed feelings of awe, respect and humility in front of these wonderful miracles of nature. It would not be an exaggeration if one said that Tsagarada is the siren of Pelion. In Tsaglarada you will find a unique plane tree of 1000 years old. The plane tree of Tsagarada is one of the oldest trees in Greece and perhaps Europe. His age, according to foresters, is 1000 years old and is located in the central square of Tsagarada, Agia Paraskevi.The perimeter of its trunk is 15 meters long, while its village is so large that it is difficult to measure it.
The wall that supports the square of Agia ParaskeviWhat perhaps is not taken into account for the age of the tree is that its roots begin four meters below the pavement of the square.As can be seen from the pictures, a wall about four meters long was built many years ago to build the church of Saint Paraskevi and to make the rest of the square.
The marble fountains below Agia Paraskevi squareBelow the square, as also shown in the photos, there are natural springs with two marble fountains. Those who know the surrounding area say that the plane tree owes its size and longevity to the natural sources on which it has spread its roots.
Typical of the development of the plane tree is that the pavement of the square is rebuilt every 15 years, as the plates rise in many places and pose a problem for visitors. At the beginning of the 1990s, due to the plane tree, the floor of the Holy Church of Agia Paraskevi was reconstructed entirely, as it came to the NN, the “rattles” and the ruins created by the roots were evident.
