Every now and then I stumble upon unexpected and majestic things here in Chester. From drunkard gandpa taking a piss at the front door of a souvenir store to the unrivalled beauty of spring sprouts and distant highlands at national parks over the horizon forming an alluring landscape, many natural wonders are yet to be explored but hopefully, I will fulfil my intense desire for camping in the wild this summer.
So, the other day, a casual day to be honest, I went for a walk across the city walls built centuries ago and reached the Racecourse. It is thrilling to know that Roman soldiers used to defend the city from outsiders, but eventually, the emperor had to witness the defeat of the Roman army standing somewhere on this wall— history & archelogy are two interesting things.
Anyway, I was so captivated and exhausted walking through the long ancient walls that I didn’t take a photo until I reached the open space accommodating a temporary fun fair right beside the racecourse and before the coronation that happened the last day.
Built over a thousand years ago, the architectural beauty is a thing to behold here in Chester, England.
A glimpse of the fair ongoing for children and adults.
The first thing that attracts the visitors is this thing. Imagine sitting at the top and circling at a decent speed. I will probably get knocked out even before reaching the height. But the Real fun starts here.
The apex of the Cathedral visible at the distance would make a nice frame if I were a real photographer and minus the crowd
Kid's paradise
Shockingly, most shopkeepers were elderly people in their 70s or around. I don't know if they are with the fair party or independent shop owner, but, seeing them working the whole day makes me upset
Scream as loud as you can
Made me nostalgic; I was so scared and fond of this ride when I was a kid
A fun-day, indeed
