Stonehenge, a prehistoric monument built between 3000 BC and 1600 BC, stands as a remarkable symbol of ancient Britain’s ingenuity and societal advancement. Aligned with the midsummer solstice sunrise, its exact purpose remains a mystery—possibly a place of worship, healing, or burial. The site’s massive stones and precise construction highlight the impressive engineering skills of its creators and continue to captivate visitors today.
