~~Visit to Medieval Festival~~

In upper Manhattan we have serene park named Fort Tryon famous for its Cloisters museum which has the artifacts from medieval Europe. For the past 26 years they are conducting a festival known as medieval festival. Many people take this occasion to dress up in medieval style and come to the park. Lots of events will be taking place in the park throughout the day.


When I found about this festival from a flyer I decided to go at that instant. Around noon I took the subway,there were few girls dressed up in the medieval dress in the train so I was eagerly looking forward for the main event.I reached the park within 20 minutes and took a brief walk to the park. The park was crowded with lots of people, there were shops at either side of the pathway showcasing the medieval tools,dresses,toys,books etc. There were mini stages in which few people were demonstrating. There were plays like Robin hood, Knights of Avalon etc. Also there were few musical plays played on old instruments which were wonderful to listen.


Coming to the main part, there were lots and lots of beautiful girls dressed up wonderfully which was a treat to the eyes. It was fun talking with few of them ,I asked a one girl what dress was that, she replied that was Harry potter's Gryffindors teams dress,one dressed as snow white, other was like a fairy and lot more different characters which was really colorful. I took time to appriciating each and every one them . It was a good time pass.


Finally left the park by evening with a contended feeling for making the day useful!
