I have always imagined that going on pilgrimage to Canterbury must have been quite fun. It had all of the advantages of a modern vacation, and also had the added benefit of being good for the soul, which made it possible to have a good time and be completely free of regrets.
There is probably very little in the Middle Ages that is better described, even though the description was fiction, because it was one of the greatest literary pieces of the English language, and was written by a man who did it. So read the Canterbury Tales if you want to know all about it. Or, if you don't have the time for that, read an article on the Canterbury Tales.
Please use the link below to an article on the Canterbury Tales.
(I almost never advocate using fiction to find out what reality was, but this one case is different. And it is also fun.)
