- Glastonbury is a town in southwest England. It's known for its ancient and medieval sites, many rich in myth. Glastonbury Tor is a tower-topped hill linked to Arthurian legend, overlooking the marshy Somerset Levels. Once said to be King Arthur’s burial place, Glastonbury Abbey is a ruined monastery dating to the 7th century. Nearby, centuries-old Glastonbury Tribunal has a museum with Iron Age artefacts.

Having lived in Glastonbury for 12 years it's other towns I find weird. They've all got the same shops!
Glastonbury has all the same shops too! There are about a dozen shops that just sell utterly useless shit like incense, potions, crystals, and tie-dyed clothing. The whole town stinks of incense. It’s just overkill.
@@malpreece5008 Yes, but that's called character, you either like it or you don't. When a town has all the same shops as every other town (i.e. Greggs, W.H.Smith, Boots and all the rest) that's lack of character!
@@malpreece5008 How dare you!!! 😆

YES..I agree with you 100% !
Weird that the High Street doesn't have empty shops like in so many English towns.
We went there on a protest march a couple of years ago. Funny smelling smoke, patchouli oil, tie die clothes, hare krishna, shamen, it's nuts. My wife, now in her 70s, a 60s hippie chick, wandered round all day with the biggest smile I've seen on her in a long time.
Brilliant comment I absolutely love Glastonbury and the people ✌️✌🏾✌🏻☮️☮️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️
'Weirdest'? Yes I suppose many people who come are not used to its vibe. I have been going to Glastonbury for maybe 20 years on and off. It holds many memories both beautiful and sad. It's like no other town I've ever been to in many respects. I could happily live there.
You said *exactly* what I was going to say in every respect 👍
Id think you would like it i love it its like a dream come true
Oh , i wil visit for sure. .It is not weird at all Was living in bali before🍀
@Awoke Awoke No.
Weird but wonderful, you can never get bored in Glastonbury, or bored of it.
Well i do because i live here
I love Glastonbury, when I need a re-charge, you go here, full of the best energy and people 😊
I'd love to live in Glastonbury...visited once and gotta go back to spend a lot more time there
I love Glastonbury it suites my way of thinking and its full of people that I can relate too.
That guy really nailed that weller song
Thats Torbs, he's a brilliant musician.
Going in a few days. Not been for decades. Looking forward to seeing all the lovely madness. 😁
I recgnise a few faces in this video ,I live right by Glastonbury...... it is weird for sure,I lived there in 1986
I sold the big issue in glasto good fun that was in the 90s
I am visiting soon! Excited to be in a place that is open and willing to embrace all. :)
Awesome! Looks like such a cool town with lots of history & lore. I'd love to visit there some day!
I would say the best time to visit is May Day there is march for the Maypole and the last day of April is good too because there are two dragons which march up the height street

No and no.
Having been raised in Glastonbury I can imagine to an outsider that it looks weird. I mean it is, but as a resident you become immune to it and just think it's normal. People are friendly, it is quirky.
It's gradually become more and more leftfield over the years. In the 80s there was far more for residents in terms of 'useful' town centre shops rather than the endless junk shops selling oddites which I'm sure is a draw for tourism. It had a Woolworths once, a variety of banking, shoe shops etc. Great for tourists these days, but for residents, less so.
There are some very interesting shops though and very colourful but other than GiGis (which I love) and an Indian, there's not much in the way of good restaurants.
Thank u...a really enjoyed that, Glastonbury has got a lovely colourful n peaceful , shiny happy people vibe 2it.
It’s not weird! You’d see a lot more Glastonbury’s if Christianity hasn’t influenced most Brits. It’s a town of lore, witch-craft, pagans and all other manner of people live in peace and harmony. It’s my home from home
Really wierd, they all look like straight out of a cult.
i don't think Christianity was/is the problem, it's materialism, conformism, capitalism etc.
Holy place for Christians too xx 💖
Jesus…😅
I was born in the town in the late 1950s and I have seen very many changes, not many true Glastonians about. It’s a very special place for me with so many memories.
Glastonbury is a beautiful..quirky...and magical place. I love visiting and could happily live there. I like the tolerant...carefree attitude of people...no gentle, caring and eccentric soul is considered too weird to be a part of what makes this place so special❤
A beautiful Woo, Woo town, great vibes, Wonderful !
I first went there about 10 years ago and fell in love with the place! I haven't been in a couple of years, nice to see its still doing well.
Absolutely love that place so magical and beautiful full of fun and lovely people ❤️ vanlife heaven for us it was. Great video thankyou 😊
11:47 I think someone put a spell on the locals… 😅
What a dark, lost place. Full of black magic and witchcraft, messing with demons and the occult. The people of Glastonbury are lost. I visited this place when I was 11 years old and I could feel the darkness and oppression of it.
Why accusing us of that? It’s one of the brightest places really I go there every day it’s amazing and beautiful
Ignorant comment. Try learning more. Are you an American Christian?
Ever coin has 2 sides ... Best tune into the light where ever you go in life
Well you need to visit Glastonbury. It’s not how you think it is.
I was sad you did not go into the Abby, my favorite place there... I love Glastonbury been many time going next month for 3 weeks. It is the heart chakra of the world
I have another video of when i went to the Abbey and Tor :)
I live In Glastonbury and we have a wizard 🧙♀️
So amazing ❤
Best town in the UK!
Visited recently having wanting to go for years. Really disappointed. Enjoyed The Tor and views but just felt the town was ‘gimmicky’. Basically selling same old manufactured crap you can buy any where. And playing on the ‘magic’ (plastic cheap looking faeries and door wreaths). What I expected - a town with heritage crafts and individual art / craftsmanship Wouldn’t go again nor recommend. Truly saddened expecting so much more.
Ooooh the memories! I like the subtle touch of the people wanlking backwards in front of the Who'd Have Thought It pub :o)
Hah thanks, I always try to add 1 reversed clip in each of my videos to see if people notice.
A couple of months ago I decided to have a look at it on Google maps, this vid is that come to life! Ta muchly 👍
I now realllly want to go there, just to wander along the high street and spend too much £, but I'm surprised there is only 1 coach directly there from London (there seems to be lots with lots of stops and changes, and then a bus from somewhere, maybe I looked in the wrong place?).
It reminds me a bit of Rochester High St, which has a slightly hippy vibe😊 (the last time I went there, at least). I wouldn't describe it as weird, it speaks to my mad-old-hippy heart!
@@jamorfati 😂 I forgot about trains 🤦
best thing about Glastonbury is the tor, must go to the top if you go.
I caught a glimpse of my dog in the video and the back of me
When I went I felt the exact same way, it's a bit weird....
Looks a lovely place. We'd now like to go there
come and see us B and B from£20 a night. but come when the sun shines
what a great video, well done mate
I love Glastonbury
Glastonbury is awesome, there are Grannies handing out vaccine information.
I would like to see a video with the unusual characters giving their opinions on Glastonbury and what they get from being in Glastonbury
First visited in 1986... wonderful place!
I’m a pagan from England love to live in Glastonbury town
So want to visit here someday!
Where's all the normal shops? Bakers, Butchers, cafes etc lol
Bakers, burns the bread, 3rd of the way up on the right, steve the butchers on the monument next to the hemp shop, about, about 10 cafes on and around high st and several pubs and restaurants.
Great if you are one of the New Age alternative mob,otherwise,same problems as any where else.I live near by.
What happened to free Rob cannabis shop on the corner opposite the King William pub. Why was that shop not shown.
still there
Beautiful town
Lots of Anti vaxxers and free people....👍🔥🥃
Refreshing
Why weird? I live here, it's a happy place.
Haven’t been to Swansea then I take it?
All Appearing at a Car boot sale near you in about 10years time
Its all fun and exciting until you learn the truth of the place, certainly not what you were first led to believe
Weird need not to be always feared. A little bit of weirdness can be the spice of life. Try some, you maybe surprised how enjoyable a bit of weird can be.🌝
Looks like a new age occult convention…😅
Do you know the Glastonbury Abbey is it in Glastonbury boys go there at the 20th and the 21st of April
Yeh I made a video there too th-cam.com/video/utH10gN8GUE/w-d-xo.html
My ldv is famous... complete with queen of hearts
I was there last week , unfortunately I was working on the new papa John's next to Oxfam , the locals were not happy and were calling us the devil's workers...sorry just doing my job .., nice to see all the independent businesses , but it was a bookies before papa John's now , so don't see the issue
As someone who's seen people mess up with gambling, honestly that sounds like an upgrade.
u mean the best town
Nah it’s a town full of junkies crackheads and hippies
Why you gotta bully my home town like that
I'm not bullying, I thought 'weirdest' would be taken a compliment hah
I bet it’s Very Expensive
I'm going for the natural holistic healing while wearing a mask, these people 🤢🤮
Such a lovely place with lovely people especially the people who decided to throw their 3 Labrador pups in the river
Omg just been there, I so want to get my face tattooed, change into my hand knitted trousers, smoke copious amounts of weed, sit in doorways convinced that I am a elf from mother nature herself,become a gender fluid vegan, walk up and down the town chanting drug influenced quotations from Harry Potter
Its speaks volumes when shops have a sign on the entrance 'no shoes no service'
All of the things you just mentioned in no way do not sound awesome lmao
