Glastonbury has been a place of pilgrimage for over a thousand years, with the ruined abbey said to be the burial place of King Arthur and Queen Guinevere. The mystical Glastonbury Tor rises above the Somerset Levels, crowned by the tower of St Michael's Church and offering panoramic views. The town attracts spiritual seekers, with shops selling crystals, tarot, and alternative therapies alongside traditional tea rooms. The annual music festival takes place on a nearby farm.
