Glastonbury is known throughout the world for the music festival that takes place most years in mid-summer - the world's largest. Sometimes this notoriety overshadows much of the place's rich and mystical past.

Legend tells us that Joseph of Arimathea brought the Holy Grail to Glastonbury from Palestine and he built the first Christian church here. Wrapped up in the myth of the Holy Grail is the notion that Glastonbury may have also been the site of King Arthur's Avalon.

Glastonbury has remained one of the most important ecclesiastical centres in Britain but this is often overlooked in favour of the music festival and New Age-ism, that the town now seems better known for. There are some excellent little cafes serving tasty organic and healthy food, and of course plenty of crystal shops. If you need your chakras realigning, this is the place to come.
