Ayia (Agia) Solomoni legendary tree curing illnesses in Paphos Cyprus


At the entrance of the underground catacombs stands a large pistachio tree that is believed to be sacred. It is believed that if you tie a piece of cloth to one of its branches with honest intentions then you will be cured of your ailments. In ancient times the catacombs were carved in the Fabrica Hill, which later became a church for the Christians.
