Plimoth Plantation and Mayflower II are the main attractions of Plymouth, Massachusetts. The real but fun two are links to the past and the present 102 passengers who traveled the Arashi sea.
During the journey, a bad storm in the North Atlantic sailed the crew and sailed the wind to blow off the ship. In one cruel storm, one of the main beams of the Mayflower cracked and the crew was convinced that they had to come back.
But the journey continued, and the world changed forever.
No, this is not a lesson of history, but the first of two articles on the two unique experiences of US history that can be held during New England vacation.
This first article covers the area of Plymouth Plantation and the second of the series covers the Sturbridge Village.
The Mayflower voyage in 1620 took 66 days after leaving Plymouth, England on June 6, and anchored at the present Provincetown port of Cape Cod on 11th November 1620. Only one passenger miraculously died at the voyage.
Pilgrims decided that Cape Cod was not a suitable place for reconciliation and headed north for the weather and dangerous sand fields south of Cape Cod, but the pilgrims finally found the current center of Plymouth I went up to the shore in late November at the department.
The first winter of Plimoth Plantation killed colonists because of coldness and illness. Only 52 out of 102 people who landed on land left in spring.
Native Wampanoag men showed how to plant corn on survivors and in 1621 Pilgrims celebrated the first harvest at the Plymouth Plantation. Later generations will recognize the importance of harvesting aside as a special day we call now Thanksgiving. And today, in 1620, we are linking all Americans to their fateful voyages, rather than other calendars.
And you can feel and recreate this spirit and the beginning of reconciliation with Plimoth Plantation and Mayflower II replica. Both are located in the coastal town of Plymouth, about 40 miles south of Boston, and you can easily ride south of Route 3.
Plymouth Plantation is a genuine village of pilgrims in 1627, located a few miles from the city, but close to the highway and a signboard.
A collection of orientation movies and artifacts will be picked up at the Henry Hornbrowwer Visitor Center. Plimoth's plantation itself is a loop tour with two major sites, the pilgrim village of 1627, Hobbamock (Wampanoag) Homesite. A walk from the museum to the main village passes through the Craft Center and the crop field.
The village itself is full of buildings and gardens. Everything is clear, productive, and authentic.
People in the village decorate, talk and act, as you know what you know with the original Plymouth Plantation. But that does not mean they speak in a mysterious story or a strange language. Their purpose is to educate and entertain, but it is still true in times. I found that they are always fascinating and exciting.
If you take a walk from the village along the Ayr River walk, you will move to the native people's home site.
As mentioned earlier, pilgrims were not aid from indigenous people, so they never survived in the first year. They taught about the area and its agriculture, the resources of the land, and how to prosper.
This special area is not a separate village but a house of a large family. We respect the importance and affinity that native people have in this area.
Please appreciate the weaving and sunburn skills performed on the premises and the use of fire to burn the boat. Walk through one house and pay attention to the materials and restraints used in construction.
The sentenced person does not perform role playing, so we can talk freely about contemporary subjects.
And now ... Please stay at Plymouth Plantation for a while, get a day off at the visitor center, or purchase the craft you saw in the store before. After that, we will depart from Plimoth Plantation and head for the town and Mayflower II replica.
Mayflower II is docked to the State Pier on Water Street. There is meter parking on the waterfront. .
I think it is a small ship.
Sometimes imagine the vast expanse of the wild and unforgiving Atlantic Ocean. A 2,760-mile journey on a ship that has flowed out at a rate suffering 2 mph!
On your Mayflower Tour, you will meet passengers on your ship's role playing. You can see the cramped quarter of the passenger and the spacious cabin of the captain. But in most cases, you will come back in time.
When you close your eyes and listen to the overhead of Garruers you will hear a shout of sailor, so you can look at the beginning of the journey and the end of one journey with the start of a journey.
Please enjoy with Plimoth Plantation and Mayflower II. They remind us of our memories of history, a link to a monumental voyage.
