Address: Kronstadt, opposite the house at st. Karla Marksa, 13
The wishing tree was cast from cast iron and is four meters high.
Moreover, such a creation belongs to local blacksmiths, who presented such a sculpture to their city. Local residents managed to create a special magical ritual around the Wishing Tree. Today, adults visit this place, as well as parents with their children. Thousands of tourists come to Kronstadt at the beginning of spring, and they always go to the Tree of Wishes to leave their most cherished wishes on it. At this attraction you can see entire rituals of making wishes.
Five-ruble coins are wrapped in paper on which the wishes themselves are written, and they are thrown into the nest where there is a cast-iron owl sitting on a branch. If a person gets into a nest, he needs to run around the tree three times. And your most cherished dream can be whispered into a single ear, which is located on the side of the trunk. You can see ringing bells on the Wishing Tree. If the bells begin to ring after making a wish, it means that it will come true. Some tourists want their wish to come true in the shortest possible time, so they are offered to ride the fawn that is standing nearby, and they also need to rub its nose several times with the palm of their hand.
Local residents claim that famous businessmen and politicians believed in such signs, which is why from time to time you can see them performing the cherished ritual of making a wish. Note that some people treat a tree as a real living creature. You can often see how they bow to him, say goodbye, talk, and also try to listen to him. Features of the Tree of Wishes The masters made this cast iron tree with their own face, so they always communicate with it when they meet and say goodbye when they leave.
The distinct outlines of the mouth, eyes and nose form the wrinkled folds of the trunk. Therefore, it seems that the four-meter giant can hear and see everything. They say that only the most intimate wishes should be approached to the Wishing Tree. This is the basic rule for those who want to make their wishes, namely wishes, not requests. Although the Wishing Tree has an ear, it is still worth thinking about what you want most; people believe that spoken words simply disappear into thin air. The wish tree is installed in the park, where its servants must clear the nest of five-ruble coins every month, because kilograms of them accumulate. Otherwise, the magic tree may be damaged. The good-natured creature, made of cast iron, has a wide smile.
Such a monument, which fulfills wishes, is especially popular among tourists, and the townspeople themselves are proud of such a Wish Tree. An interesting tree was installed in 2000, when the city’s tercentenary was celebrated. To find the Wishing Tree, you need to go to Karl Marx Street, it is located opposite house 13. No tourist should miss such an amazing city attraction.
And the local residents themselves often come here to talk with the good-natured Tree.
