Stonehenge
Stonehenge, about 90 miles southwest of London near Salisbury, has been confounding and intriguing humans forever. The mysterious 40-ton rock formation, which dates back nearly 5,000 years, is one of the most famous prehistoric monuments the world over.
It's uniformly believed that Stonehenge was built in three phases and took literally millions of hours of labor to complete. As far as the purpose of the circular stone monoliths - that one's still up for debate, but theories range from astronomy to human sacrifice.

Sunrise, sunset
Named a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1986, Stonehenge is especially fascinating for history and architecture buffs. The monument is open year round and custodians are always on hand to protect Stonehenge and answer questions.
Taking a bus or private tour is, perhaps, the best way to visit as access to Stonehenge's Circle can be arranged. This special entrée can only take place when the site is closed to the public. Translation: during sunrise or sunset, which is when the scene is at its most breathtaking.
