Stonehenge, UK

I had to see this for myself. The whole structure is fenced off but.......if you contact the Heritage organization ahead of time, you can enter the place before or after regular hours.The Sarsen stones are the large ones. They can weigh as much as 40 tons. The closest source for these types of stones is Marlborough Downs in north Wiltshire(about 19 miles away). The smaller stones are called Bluestones which came from Preseli Hills of west Wales( 150 miles away). You can see the Bluestones in the last photograph. Gallery complete
