Historical Hunts Ltd. presents the 12th Annual Silk Road Hunt & Event (4-26 June 2022). Our theme this year is "Crossroads: Japan." Therefore, when you arrive at the event, you will find yourself in a place much like Edo Period Japan!
The Hunt is grid-wide, which means hunters will hop store-to-store following landmarks inside each hunt item. The Event is in Mieville Shelley, at a brand new mega-build created for high visibility and smooth traffic flow.
There are tons of free gifts and top-quality merchandise available. Seventy merchants are participating, with a wide range of decor, clothing, jewelry, furniture, and full perm items for your shopping enjoyment. For a full list of shops, please view our blog (https://historicalhunts.blogspot.com) and click "Participating!" at the top. The list of merchants includes Sky Willow, Grendels, Fairey Angel Creations, Sanna - Science and Art, Texworks, Timeless Textures, Pixel Box, Kisetsu, ~Lantian/Flox~, Storybook Cats, Grasshopper St., and many more!
There is also great entertainment on-hand, including the very popular group: "Keeba's Tiny Maniacs!" In addition, we offer traditional dancers, an Asian violinist, wandering storytellers, live DJs, haiku and fishing contests, an art show, and four big, costume-themed parties.
Lastly, there is a game at the Silk Road Event called the "Clicky Kitsune Quest." Once visitors get the free HUD at the Arrival Area, they can wander and click randomly-appearing kitsune (foxes) for points. These Clicky Kitsune are spread throughout the event, so visitors are encouraged to explore. Points can be traded at any time for a wide range of gifts, available at participating merchants' Event booths. The entire system is FREE, and past, similar games have proven highly popular.
