While visiting Lisbon and walking through its parks, I kept stumbling on huge, beautiful old trees and wanted a way to find more of them. That became Ancient Trees: a map of remarkable trees worth a visit, wherever you are. A yew older than the church beside it, a plane tree it takes four people to hug, an oak that has seen everything happen on its street.
