#tetejetlen fa

[doubtspirit]

The dragon tympanum of the St. James Chapel of the Saint Michael's Church in Sopron, Hungary.

The ‘égig érő fa’ (‘sky-high tree’) is a tree from Hungarian folklore: there exists in the world a wonderful tree with nine jutting branches that, as they churn, send out gusts of wind. So marvellous is this tree that both the Moon, and the Sun can pass freely through its branches. The fabulous tree, protected by dragons, grows in a place only one skilled in the art can find: the average person may hear word of it, but can never see it.
