Description

Stonehenge, located about 30 miles from Bath, England, is one of the world’s most famous prehistoric monuments. This ancient stone circle, believed to have been constructed between 3000 and 2000 BCE, continues to fascinate visitors with its mysterious origins and impressive engineering. Thought to have served as a ceremonial or religious site, Stonehenge is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and an iconic symbol of Britain’s ancient past.

The monument consists of massive standing stones arranged in a circular layout, some weighing up to 25 tons. Despite centuries of study, many questions remain about how the stones were transported and erected. Visitors to Stonehenge can explore the site via a designated pathway that allows close views of the stones, and the nearby visitor centre provides extensive exhibitions on the archaeology, history, and significance of the site. Audio guides and multimedia displays help bring the story of Stonehenge to life.

Access to Stonehenge requires a timed ticket, which can be booked in advance to avoid queues, especially during peak tourist seasons. The site offers facilities such as a café, gift shop, and restrooms. While photography is permitted, climbing on the stones is not allowed to preserve the monument. For those staying in Bath, a visit to Stonehenge makes an excellent day trip to experience one of the most remarkable remnants of the ancient world.
