I am just fascinated by this huge country. Kathleen of Family Travel Life A Calmer Side of ChinaĬhina’s diverse natural beauty is as impressive as its splendid culture and long history. Transportation would have been by horse or boat, the city’s skyline would have been low and small, food would come from local farms, entertainment would come from books and plays, and life would have just been slower. Life during that time would have been busy, yet simple. Just think of all the laundry that needed to be done! The amount of layers that were required for both men and women is astounding. It must have been a very confusing time for the people of England as they were unsure of decisions the King would make.īesides the interesting political air of the time, the way in which people dressed is also quite fascinating to me. However, after a jousting accident, he became very paranoid and unpredictable. King Henry VIII in his younger days was said to be handsome and strong. The time and place that fascinates me the most is England during the reign of King Henry VIII. But there would be more! There would be the incredible rituals during the spring and fall equinoxes – all revolving around the might of the sun.Ĭlaudia of My Adventures Across the World 16th Century England It would be fun to watch a pelota game, walk along the small city of Tulum and get terrified at the sacrifices Maya performed regularly to their gods. One may well marvel at the grandeur of sites like Chichen Itza and Tonina or at the colours of the palaces of Uxmal or Palenque. But wouldn’t it be interesting to spend a day in Mexico as it used to be in the times of the Maya? Travelling around Mexico, one can’t help be charmed by the incredible beaches, the beautiful colonial cities and the fabulous and well kept archaeological sites.

#IF I COULD GO BACK IN TIME FULL#
The markets were still full of fresh produce, hand made goods and trinkets from the past and people weren’t too busy on their cell phones to look up and enjoy the sights and sounds of the bustling city. The Notting Hill Carnival got started in the late 60s and really hit its stride in the 70s, the music scene in London was unbelievable and the infamous Richard Branson was shaking up everything from records to phones to trains. I’m pretty much obsessed with the 70s and I’m pretty much obsessed with London so naturally I’d want to go back to my favourite era in my favourite place! I am personally a bit dinosaur mad and so would love to go back in time to see our predecessors in the flesh – bonus points if it were something I could achieve from a safe distance!Ĭuriosity got the better of me, so I asked a few other bloggers what their ideal time period would be. If you could hop into your nearest Tardis (Doctor Who nerd alert, right here!) and travel back in time to any place and any point, where would you journey to? Some of the dinosaurs in Crystal Palace Park. Where would you go if you could travel back in time? Here are some possible places you may not have considered.
