Christian and Faithful soon arrive at a town called [[Vanity]]. In the middle of the town is a fair called Vanity Fair because all sorts of vanity are sold there. The two are soon arrested by the people for their strange clothing and speech and their refusal to buy anything and are shut in an iron cage. Faithful is taken to trial for causing a disturbance before the judge named Lord Hategood. Three witnesses named [[Envy]], [[Superstition]] and Pickthank testify against him and the jury finds him to be guilty. He is burned at the stake but after his death he is driven in a nearby chariot to the Celestial City.

Meanwhile Christian escapes from Vanity and is accompanied by one of its inhabitants named Hopeful. They arrive at a river called  the 'river of God' and the 'river of the water of life' with many fruit trees on its banks and meadows on either side. The way following the river is rough so Christian decides to in stead follow a meadow called By-Path on one side of the path. They are met by a man named Vain-confidence going to the Celestial City. Soon it becomes dark and Vain-confidence accidentally falls into a deep pit and dies. It begins to rain and the two decide to rest under a shelter. They fall asleep and in the morning are captured by Giant Despair, the lord of Doubting Castle and thrown into his dungeon. Advised by his wife Diffidence, Despair tries to convince the Pilgrims to commit suicide but they refuse. After many days Christian remembers he has a key called Promise with which he manages to unlock the dungeon door and the castle gate. Before continuing their journey, the two erect a pillar warning future pilgrims of Giant Despair.

They reach the Delectable Mountains on Immanuel's Land and are met by four shepherds who guide them through the mountains. The two receive a note of the way and are warned to beware the flatterer and sleeping on the Enchanted Ground. Soon they meet a young man named Ignorance from the country of Conceit who also seeks the Celestial City but has not walked through the wicket-gate. They meet a black man wearing white clothes who convinces them to follow a road that is going farther away from the Celestial City. They fall into a net but are freed by a Shining One who reproaches them for not following the shepherds' directions but instead the flatterer they were warned about.
