夏天从今天开始(Summer begins today)
有没有比英国萨默塞特的老格拉斯顿伯里更有气氛的地方来庆祝今天的夏至?花一年中最长的一天探索这座充满神话和历史的城市。几个世纪以来,外邦人和基督教徒在这里平等地进行祭拜,今天这两个群体仍在这样做。地平线上引人注目的小山是格拉斯顿伯里门(Glastonbury Gate),其顶部的孤塔是14年来圣米歇尔教堂的最后遗迹。在19世纪。它取代了1275年地震中倒塌的木质教堂。
原文:
Is there a more atmospheric place to celebrate today's summer solstice than old Glastonbury in Somerset, England? Spend the longest day of the year exploring the city, steeped in myth and history. Gentiles and Christians have performed their cult here equally over the centuries, and both groups still do so today. The striking hill on the horizon is Glastonbury Gate, and the lonely tower on its top is the last remnant of St Michael's Church from the 14-year period. In the 19th century. It replaced a wooden church that had collapsed in an earthquake in 1275.
