  • Welcome to Glastonbury, known for being host to the largest music festival in the world and by far the strangest place in the UK... known as a Hippy Heaven, where Witches, Wizards and Hippies are a common sight! A mystical place where alternative lifestyles and pagan spiritualism is normal. A real life Harry Potter movie. A centre for all things alternative lifestyle and eccentric! I was shocked to see every shop was filled in this UK High Street, a rare sight on my travels of the UK. Glastonbury is a busy, bustling and vibrant British Town Centre, opposed to the abandoned high streets of Britain that we are all familiar with. Not all of the UK is Broken Britain. Thanks to @BackpackerBen for stopping by! Head over to his channel and check out his extreme travel content!

    One national tabloid described this small British town as the "Weirdest Town in The UK"... I would say the "Strangest Place In The World". Never in my life have I been anywhere as weird and wonderful as Glastonbury or Avalon as it was once known. Hearing the stories of the locals in street interview form was eye opening.

    Backpacker Ben looked at those springs like it was piss. Backpacking has changed a lot since I was a teenager. We would have been 'well' glad of a drink of good water when my mate and I went backpacking in 1990. We got of the Belfast to Liverpool boat with £12 between us and spent the next three months hitching through England. We very seldom went hungry or thirsty and we sipped at many service station taps, we would've filled our bellies and bottles at a spring like this. The English people were very good to us and many times we were fed, watered and offered a floor to bed down on. Great times and good people.

    20 years ago while I was very very high I wild camped on the side of Glastonbury tor. I woke in the night in my tent to hear strange chanting outside. Some guy was chanting in the dark outside.... I heard him chant the name shiva and thought fair enough shiva isn't Satan so maybe he won't sacrifice me in the night.... In the morning I went outside and made breakfast and a big fattie. The guy was camping right outside my tent and hadn't seen my tent in the dark. He awoke and was a lil freaked out to see me.... Glastonbury! All normal there!

    The red and white springs are kept clean and drinkable. It's spring water, just like the stuff you buy in bottles in the supermarket. The red spring water doesn't keep that well, so better drunk fresh. That was a pretty fair appraisal of our beautiful town, you'd fit in well, not so sure about your mate Ben 😃. Be aware that people come from far and wide to the variety of cosmic conferences held over the summer. Beneath all the cosmic nonsense is a community with a heart of gold.

The town is so clean and full of gorgeous independent shops and cafés. I love the lamp shop, art shops and hemp shop as well as all the crystal and book shops of course. There is also so much to see in the surrounding areas x

There’s a place not to far called Rockaway at Temple cloud I highly recommend you visit. It’s like a huge community of incredible people. That water is incredible. I used to collect and drink it regularly. It has no fluoride no oestrogen no cocaine which your vile tap water is full of

These hippies are completely normal to what you saw in the 60s, then, long kaftan,bells around the neck,Indian sandals,cloth headbands and John lennon glasses and that was just the men and loads of afghan coats even in summer.My traditional boring dad nearly had a meltdown at the sight of them, calling them unemployable layabout students who would never get a job in the real world. Mum called them dirty lot. I bet they all ended up as architects and maths teachers😊

But, there are some great cafes and restaurants there as well!

    Proper job is about the most useful shop in central Glastonbury if you are still normal. Once upon a time there was also a good surplus shop at the top of the high street on the left, but it disappeared along with a few other good shops. We are overrun by charity shops and witch shops. Gigi's is good if you want normal food as well. None of these ever get a mention on these types of video, so in case you are visiting, that's the deal.

    Amazing. Really want to go there.
    You fit in with Ben and his people so well. Very glad to see you now as part of them. Love the history, didn't know about the water!
    The fact you know about Joseph of Arimathea and his role is amazing. Also, legend has it he brought a young Jesus with him to England, and that's why the Celts converted so easily to Christianity when it came here.

      Thanks for the kind words that's awesome to hear! I love history and feel that if people knew a little more of their local history they may be more inclined to care about their local surroundings. Thanks for watching

    I like Glastonbury. Especially the George and Pilgrims pub, where's it rumoured Henry VIII was sat in watching the abbey burn.
    Always a positive vibe in that place, although the actual residents of Glastonbury aren't usually that keen on it!

      i,m a local, the locals love the vibe an the alternative, what they don,t like is benchers openly taking drugs and pushing them on tourists!! Getting youngsters to pedal the drugs for them or the drinking binges until the early hours of the morning, or the violence that happens because of the benchers!!! Most of them don,t even come from Glastonbury! most druggies (benchers) use Glastonbury for its so called reputation of a free spirited town! yes in most ways it is but these few bring the place down!!

    Butt close. Lol. Enjoyable jaunt around Glastonbury, there is certainly an aura & a "vibe" about the place I can't quite put my finger on. I can almost smell the pachouli oil. Whitby in Yorkshire has similar quirky vibe. Good to see the town at street level , lots of people may just pass by or quickly pass through, ecspecially during the festival. I can't really call myself a "hippy", but I have a bit of a soft spot for fairy tales etc. I've been called Pixie & Tinkerbell, so maybe I would fit in well at the ball. Some of those costumes are out of this world. Nice one👍

    We used to have a shop in Glastonbury, Colour of Sound if anyone remembers us. It’s a different place if you live and work there, more to it than you get from a casual visit. A lot is quite commercialised nowadays, but where isn’t…at least it’s fun and friendly. I miss it, never felt so much a part of things anywhere else. The water by the way is from two different sources, the red and white springs. The red is iron rich. Both much purer than anything from a tap! I used to use it for everything except bathing when I was there. If you visit again, go up the tor and also visit Chalice Well Gardens 😊

    Like wow man! We have a similar experience not far away in West Yorkshire called Hebden Bridge - a Northern Hippie Haven. I keep up to date with things via Glastonbury Gabriel's channel. I've been a few times, last time was for the festival in the 80's. I stayed after to clear up, so much trash for so many hippies who "love the Earth" - I think they've missed something. Many left full camping set ups, not cheap either! I go by works not words. For your edification I think you'll find that latter Romans brought "Christianity" to the UK in the late 3rd and early 4th century AD. Later was St. Columba 521 to 597ad who was said to bring "Christianity" to Scotland in the 6th century.

    I thought I didn't need to visit Glastonbury as I had visited Totnes a few times when living in Plymouth, but Glastonbury was closer to where I live now. It is even weirder than Totnes. Glastonbury has the Tor while Totnes has the Dartington Estate. Glastonbury for the hippies and fairies. Whitby for the goths and steam punks.
