No such thing as late! We love the participation even after the chat is officially over 💪🏻

Same! For me, being in Greece makes every story and myth so real 🙀

#TravelAddictsHistory #TravelAddicts

I feel like Dracula plays such a prominent role that it’s hard to imagine that there can be anything else in Romanian folklore so that’s a good lesson

#TravelAddictsHistory #TravelAddicts

I love that! You really gotta appreciate good storytelling. Adding this to read later!

#TravelAddictsHistory #TravelAddicts

The ancients were really good at documenting and building temples to their gods so it makes sense that we know more about it rather than those passed down orally. I also love reading stories that incorporate folklore 🙌

#TravelAddictsHistory #TravelAddicts

I think these tours can sound very appealing but to actually do them is a different experience. I’ve visited former jails and that was a bit freaky

#TravelAddictsHistory #TravelAddicts

I think that would be an epic trip!

A6 - I would love to visit all the various islands from the medieval Irish voyage tales (well maybe not visit them all, just sail past the more dangerous ones)

#TravelAddictsHistory #TravelAddicts

A5 - I've done a couple "spooky" tours in Edinburgh (a ghost tour and a trip to Edinburgh dungeons) but not a huge fan. I love storytelling experiences though, they're so interesting. I've not done a specific myth-based tour but love it when they include myths.

#TravelAddictsHistory #TravelAddicts

A4 - It's hard to choose because I love them all. Ancient mythology tend to have more actual sites to visit, so it probably wins simply because I love historic sites. I really enjoy reading fiction based on folklore though!

An evening of Traditional Lao Storytelling - Sarah's Sojourns Traditional storytelling is important to many cultures. This evening of Lao storytelling is a valuable and enjoyable glance at their traditions and values.

A3 - When I was in Luang Prabang, I went to a storytelling evening and it included a lot of local legends about the landscape and that definitely influenced how I saw everything the next day while exploring.

A2 - I enjoyed visiting Bran Castle in Romania, they had sections on Romanian mythology so you could learn about other creatures from folklore.

Haw Par Villa in Singapore was also really cool - it's full of statues depicting scenes from Chinese folklore.

#TravelAddictsHistory #TravelAddicts

A1 - Greek mythology was definitely the biggest reason I wanted to travel to Greece. When I went to Rhodes, I ended up also flying to Athens so I could visit the Parthenon and loved visiting the museum seeing all the art depicting the gods. #TravelAddictsHistory #TravelAddicts

Haha! Indeed. Apparently, there are a few possible sites but this particular one was the most ‘credible’.

Anytime!
