点评:The views awesome, went late November so clear, could see the Severn Bridge & power station. There are two good ways to visit, option 1) spring to September there is the TOR mini bus, pre book, park in the centre of Glastonbury, try either early morning if you can. The bus is convenient but limited time at the TOR, 40 minutes! OR option 2) early morning or late afternoon set your Sat Nav to BA6 8DB (Chickwell St. this is the car park for Draper & Son, a very small car park, the owner allows parking on condition you pay an ‘upfront fee either £3 or £5, from the car park, go via steps into the shop, pay & display your ticket.
You can buy amazing slippers and hand made clothing here.
Cross over the road, look out for the NT sign, walk up to the TOR, you can’t miss it, just keep looking up, steep narrow steps, take your time, half way there is a Heart Defibulator !!, dogs only allowed on a lead ( ideally no dogs) lots of people passing each other. There are benches to rest, we sat and chatted to a gentleman in beautiful tailored clothes & hat who spoke to us about the farm away in the distance for 10 minutes, as we were on limited time we had to leave him, and the man was a ghost! As we turned to carry on up to the TOR we turned around and he was gone!!
You will meet and see people meditating, take time to simply sit quietly, respect the TOR and its history.
Research the past and why it is so special. Then return to the car park, drive and try and find a car park, be amazed at all the spiritual shops, incense, candles and crystal shops, cafes, a couple of pubs (very old) hardly any retail shops, it’s a very strange but unique town
We didn’t have time to visit the Abbey, maybe next time
Try and visit in the quieter months
Wear good footwear, water, warm clothing & there is neither toilets or a cafe!
翻译:景色棒极了,11 月下旬去的,视野开阔,可以看到塞文桥和发电站。有两种游览方式,选择 1) 春季至 9 月有 TOR 迷你巴士,提前预订,将车停在格拉斯顿伯里中心,如果可以的话,可以尝试在清晨。巴士很方便,但在 TOR 的时间有限,40 分钟!或者选项 2)清晨或傍晚将您的卫星导航设置为 BA6 8DB(Chickwell St. 这是 Draper & Son 的停车场,非常小的停车场,业主允许停车,条件是您支付 3 英镑或 5 英镑的预付费用,从停车场出发,通过台阶进入商店,付款并出示您的票。
您可以在这里购买漂亮的拖鞋和手工服装。
过马路,寻找 NT 标志,走到 TOR,你不会错过的,只要一直往上看,陡峭狭窄的台阶,慢慢来,半路上有一个心脏除颤器!!,狗只能用绳子牵着(最好没有狗)很多人擦肩而过。有长椅可以休息,我们坐下来和一位穿着漂亮剪裁衣服和帽子的绅士聊天,他向我们讲述了远处的农场 10 分钟,因为我们的时间有限,我们不得不离开他,而那个人就像个鬼魂!当我们转身继续前往 TOR 时,我们转过身然后他就走了!!
你会遇见并看到人们在冥想,花点时间静静地坐着,尊重 TOR 及其历史。
研究过去以及它为什么如此特别。然后返回停车场,开车并尝试寻找停车场,惊叹于所有精神商店、香、蜡烛和水晶商店、咖啡馆、几家酒吧(非常古老)几乎没有零售店,这是一个非常奇怪但独特的小镇
我们没有时间参观修道院,也许下次吧
尝试在比较安静的月份参观
穿上好的鞋子、水和保暖的衣服,这里既没有厕所也没有咖啡馆!
