Besalú Medieval Fair

Every year in early September the small town of Besalu, La Garrotxa, celebrates the Medieval Fair. For an entire weekend, the town is transformed into an authentic medieval village, with stalls packed will all kinds of objects including food, activities for all ages and at all hours, live music, warriors on horseback, and donkey rides for smaller kids. You can see exhibits of birds and even watch live potters modeling works of art. It is very entertaining and recommended for a trip to the past in our history. The architect of Besalu and location allow for a lot of play with it. So it's a good time to visit the town (if you do are not frightened by the crowds of people).
