Hello friends of Hive! A few months ago I went to a medieval fair and today I will tell you about that day.

Hola amigos de Hive! Hace algunos meses fui a una feria medieval y hoy les contaré acerca de ese día.

This is a craft fair that they do from time to time in the capital, called the landing of the king, referring to the series Game of Thrones. There are several artisan stalls where you can buy different things such as wines, mead, ornaments, notebooks, clothes, etc. All with the medieval theme.

Esta es una feria artesanal que hacen cada cierto tiempo en la capital, llamada el desembarco del rey haciendo referencia a la serie Juego de Tronos. Hay varios puestos de artesanos donde puedes comprar distintas cosas como por ejemplo vinos, hidromiel, adornos, cuadernos, ropa, etc. Todo con la temática medieval.

They also offer beekeeping workshops, this seemed quite interesting to me since it is the activity of raising bees to obtain honey. Norse mythology talks are given, there is live music and there are several gastronomy options such as empanadas, pizzas, sandwiches, etc.

También ofrecen talleres de apicultura, esto me pareció bastante interesante ya que es la actividad de crianza de abejas para poder obtener la miel. Se dan charlas de mitología nórdica, hay música en vivo y hay varias opciones de gastronomía como empanadas, pizzas, emparedados, etc.

What I liked most about the fair is that all the artisans were dressed and made up with a medieval theme, this made it even more striking and they were all quite friendly, you could take photos with them and spend some time.

Lo que más me gustó de la feria es que todos los artesanos estaban vestidos y maquillados con temática medieval, esto lo hacía más llamativo aún y todos eran bastante amables, te podías tomar fotos con ellos y compartir un rato.

There are several recreational activities, a space was set up to fight with swords, of course using adequate protection so as not to get hurt. In my case, I did not want to do that activity but I took advantage of the opportunity and with some friends we went to a stall of an artisan who was doing Viking makeup and hairstyles, she did makeup for me with lines and dots that, in my opinion, were great.

Hay varias actividades recreativas, estaba habilitado un espacio para hacer luchas con espadas, claro usando una protección adecuada para no salir herido. En mi caso, no quise hacer esa actividad pero aproveché la oportunidad y con unos amigos fuimos a un puesto de una artesana que era de maquillajes y peinados vikingos, a mí me maquilló con líneas y puntos que en mi opinión, quedaron geniales.

I couldn't let the occasion pass and I tried different types of mead, there were red fruits, apple, peach and the classic flavor. My favorite was the peach one as it was sweet and didn't taste as strong from the fermentation. While I was buying a bottle, the craftsman told me that it took a year to prepare, since he left it macerating for several months. Mead was a sacred drink, which was commonly used in religious ceremonies, it was one of the first alcoholic beverages consumed by humans. I quite liked it but you have to be careful with its consumption since you feel the effects quickly haha. I hope you liked my post, skål!

No podía dejar pasar la ocasión y probé distintos tipos de hidromiel, había de frutos rojos, manzana, durazno y el sabor clásico. Mi favorito fue el de durazno ya que era dulce y no se sentía tan fuerte el sabor de la fermentación. Mientras compraba una botella, el artesano me contaba que tardaba un año en la preparación, ya que lo dejaba macerando por varios meses. El hidromiel era una bebida sagrada, que se utilizaba comúnmente en ceremonias religiosas, fue una de las primeras bebidas alcohólicas que consumió el ser humano. Me gustó bastante pero hay que tener cuidado con su consumo ya que sientes los efectos rápidamente haha. Espero les haya gustado mi post, skål!
