WHILE most people head to Glastonbury to experience its legendary festival, there might just be an even better reason to visit.<\/p>\n

White witch Dee Johnson is a "Third Degree Wiccan High Priestess" who casts spells and reads\u00a0tarot cards<\/span>\u00a0for her clients.<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

In addition to her mystical day job, Dee has also spent years travelling to magical parts of the UK for both work and leisure.<\/p>\n

One "totally magical" place Dee recommends to clients and friends alike is the town of Glastonbury in Somerset. <\/p>\n

Dee, who is also known as The Modern Witch, has been visiting Glastonbury<\/span> for the last 20 years.<\/p>\n

Dee told Sun Online Travel: "Glastonbury is a magical, sacred, place. It is the Heart Chakra of the world, and it's even said that the holy grail was buried there." <\/p>\n

Every time Dee visits the festival town, she makes a beeline for Glastonbury Tor – a cone-shaped hill that's topped with the ruins of a bell tower from the 15th Century.<\/p>\n

The bell tower was once part of the Church of St Michel's, and is believed to have been an important place for Druid priests and priestesses. <\/p>\n

There are also some remains on the hill that are believed to indicate the former presence of a huge stone circle – like those found in Avebury and Stonehenge. <\/p>\n

Visitors to Glastonbury Tor will need to climb 301 steps<\/span> in order to reach the top, where they'll be rewarded with countryside views. <\/p>\n

Another place Dee always visits on her trips to Glastonbury is the Abbey Ruins. <\/p>\n

She said: "The ruins are huge. It's a massive place where I lap the energy<\/span> up. It used to be a monastery, but now it's shrouded in legends." <\/p>\n

The legends include being linked to King Arthur<\/span> and his knights.<\/p>\n

Entry into the ruins costs \u00a311 for a full-paying adult.<\/p>\n

While a visit to the ruins could last an entire day in their own right, there are other magical attractions to visit in Glastonbury.<\/p>\n

Dee said: "The high street is packed with lots of independent shops – you won't see a Starbucks<\/span> here." <\/p>\n

On her trips, Dee makes sure to visit some of the local shops like Star Child and The Sons of Askaban, both of which sell organic herbs and crystals<\/span>. <\/p>\n

She added: "There are also lots of vegan coffee shops, I really like eating at The Rainbow and the Hundred<\/span> Monkey." <\/p>\n

"The people in Glastonbury are really friendly, and I've made many friends there who I go back and visit." <\/p>\n

Dee is often recognised by the shopkeepers on her visits to the town, but she knows other Brit holidaymakers will also be met with the same warmth. <\/p>\n

And this isn't the only magical place in the UK Dee has recommended to Brit holidaymakers. <\/p>\n
