***************************************************************************************************
Glastonbury is a town and civil parish in Somerset, England, situated at a dry point on the low-lying Somerset Levels, 23 miles south of Bristol.
Glastonbury has been described as having a New Age community, and possibly being where New Age beliefs originated at the turn of the twentieth century when a feminine landscape was created where Christianity had ‘first touched Britain’, which attracts people with New Age and Neopagan beliefs, and is notable for myths and legends often related to Glastonbury Tor, concerning Joseph of Arimathea, the Holy Grail and King Arthur. Joseph is said to have arrived in Glastonbury and stuck his staff into the ground, when it flowered miraculously into the Glastonbury Thorn.
The Glastonbury Festival, held in the nearby village of Pilton, takes its name from the town. Glastonbury Festival is a five-day festival of contemporary performing arts that takes place in Pilton, Somerset, England. In addition to contemporary music, the festival hosts dance, comedy, theatre, circus, cabaret, and other arts. Leading pop and rock artists have headlined, alongside thousands of others appearing on smaller stages and performance areas. The festival receives extensive television and newspaper coverage. Glastonbury is attended by around 200,000 people, requiring extensive infrastructure in terms of security, transport, water, and electricity supply. The majority of staff are volunteers, helping the festival to raise millions of pounds for charity organisations.
Regarded as a major event in British culture, the festival is inspired by the ethos of the hippie, counterculture, and free festival movements. It retains vestiges of these traditions, such as the Green Fields area, which includes sections known as the Green Futures and Healing Field.
Many of the oldest surviving buildings in the town, including the Tribunal, George Hotel and Pilgrims' Inn and the Somerset Rural Life Museum, which is based at the site of a 14th century abbey manor barn, often referred to as a tithe barn, are associated with Glastonbury abbey.
Glastonbury Abbey was a monastery in Glastonbury, Somerset, England. Its ruins, a grade I listed building and scheduled ancient monument, are open as a visitor attraction. The abbey was founded in the 7th century and enlarged in the 10th. It was destroyed by a major fire in 1184, but subsequently rebuilt and by the 14th century was one of the richest and most powerful monasteries in England.
From at least the 12th century the Glastonbury area has been associated with the legend of King Arthur, a connection promoted by medieval monks who asserted that Glastonbury was Avalon.
The Tribunal in Glastonbury, Somerset, England, was built in the 15th century as a merchant's house. It has been designated as a Grade I listed building. The history of the building is not well documented, although the majority of the present stone house was constructed in the 15th century on the site of a 12th-century wooden building. The current front wall was added in the 16th century. It has been used as a merchant's house and possibly a shop and school. It was thought that it was the venue for court proceedings, hence the title Tribunal, however there is no evidence this ever occurred. One of the ground floor rooms still has the window and ceiling panels from the Elizabethan era.

The thing that strikes me about your channel videos is that you go to very special places that no one may have gone to.

Thank you so much :)
People in the comments mentioning how quiet it is and about the closed shops, I live in Glastonbury and this was obviously filmed very early in the morning, if it was filmed at midday you will see it will be more busy than your average town due to lots of tourists and locals, Glastonbury is one town that has not one empty shop, all shops are occupied and are always busy.
Good video, the atmosphere around is very beautiful. have a good day , greetings from Thailand
Thanks very much for watching :) Have a good day too :)

I remember back in the 90s and 2000s it was a busy bustling town with lots of people there doing their thing and busy shops etc.
It looks very quiet now and a lot of closed shops.
A victim of the Covid lock-downs perhaps?
Hello,
nice shots, interesting video. Thumbs up.
greetings
Joseph
Thanks very much Joseph :)
Really good
Thank you so much :)
Glastonbury is probably the most famous town in the world. Can anyone name a more famous town with a population of under 10, 000 people? Forget about the music festival which is actually held in a farm in Pilton 8 miles away. The actual town of Glastonbury has so much history, culture and legends attached to it that has been written about for 1000s of years from visitors all over the world.
This is very sad to see such a beautiful place, with no one and all the shop's empty. Hopefully thing's will pick up soon.
Yes i hope so too. Thanks for watching.
