Summer Solstice 2009 : the most memorable festival ever




Last Sunday was the summer solstice, the longest day of the year. To celebrate and enjoy the day, festivals are annually run in Stonehenge, which is world-renown for the mysterious heritage. As there was a festival, the fascinating event attracted lots of people; hippies, paganists and tourists. The most impressive thing was those participants prepared something, they could do, on their own and performed it. There was no restriction in playing their own performance such as playing the trumpet, the guitar, the African drum and even art football! Unbelievably they made a harmony one another - it was what I hadn't imagined before.

The festival going on throughout the night and the morning, those attendants were absolutely fervent, despite the fact that they were about to run out of their energy - screaming, dancing and music didn't halt at all throughout the festival. What an amazing passion! It made me turn into hot-blooded as well.

I won't forget that moment, which I enjoyed and breathed with those people and the special land, Stonehenge - It is definitely must-visit as long as you're in this country, Britain.
