Tripoli Circle 2011

The Tripoli Circle 2011 was not as interesting as it used to be, due to the weather. This year the festival was called “Tripilske Kolo. Repeat”, But I would call it truly dedicated to the theme of water, since it rained almost all days at the festival.

True, this did not stop getting a lot of pleasure from watching a variety of interesting things, master classes, seminars, concerts and just staring at the fakes of craftsmen was quite interesting.

On the Tripoli circle one could meet a huge variety of outlandish things - an interesting culture of the Old Believers, mysterious circles and patterns in the fields, incomprehensible structure throughout the territory. One could find a huge number of hobbies and entertainments, from esotericism to dancing in the old styles. Just simply can not describe.

Although a large number of masters, shamans and simply strong people were represented at the festival, they could not drive away the rain.

In the evening, as always, the concert began, but the concert was very unusual - in the rain. There were a large number of groups from different countries. People near the stage were wet under a thunderstorm, spotlights were illuminated by the falling rain, and all this created an unforgettable atmosphere.

After the concert, which ended quite late, it was very nice to fall asleep under the raindrops that were pounding on the tent tent.

There were few photos, because due to the rain my camera was constantly hidden in a carry case or just hung idle under my rain cover.

This is how the festival went on this year, I will not forget it for a long time, since I still have patterns on my hands from henna painting at one of their workshops. Thank you for your attention, Arkady Shapoval
