It consists of an outer ring of vertical sarsen standing stones, each around 13 feet (4.0 m) high, seven feet (2.1 m) wide, and weighing around 25 tons, topped by connecting horizontal lintel stones.

The surrounding circular earth bank and ditch, which constitute the earliest phase of the monument, have been dated to about 3100 BC. Radiocarbon dating suggests that the first bluestones were raised between 2400 and 2200 BC,[2] although they may have been at the site as early as 3000 BC.[3][4][5]<br><br>One of the most famous landmarks in the United Kingdom, Stonehenge is regarded as a British cultural icon.[6] It has been a legally protected Scheduled Ancient Monument since 1882, when legislation to protect historic monuments was first successfully introduced in Britain.

Stonehenge is owned by the Crown and managed by English Heritage; the surrounding land is owned by the National Trust.[7][8]<br><br>Stonehenge could have been a burial ground from its earliest beginnings.[9] Deposits containing human bone date from as early as 3000 BC, when the ditch and bank were first dug, and continued for at least another 500 years.[10]</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>&nbsp;The Khao Kho National park is located in Lom Kao, Lom Sak, Khao Kho, and Mueang Phetchabun districts in Thailand's Phetchabun province. The national park covers an area of 483 square kilometers and was established in 2012.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;  &nbsp; Khao Kho is generally good to visit most of the year. Avoid Khao Kho from April to June (hottest season). Other than that, you’re good to go! If you’re looking for a spectacular sea of clouds views, the sea of clouds is most dense during the rainy season from July to September. And if you’d love cold wintry temperatures, visit from November to February!<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; However, if you’re up for it, the views are amazing and no pictures will <em>ever</em> live up to the real deal. If you come around December or January, you will see cherry blossoms in bloom – no need to fly all the way to Japan!&nbsp;<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;<br>           But don’t just stay for a photo or two, pack a bag and stay overnight instead. Camp out and experience what it means to be one with nature. There’s no other stay that enhances Khao Kho’s European feels as much as The Blue Sky Resort. If you’re after something more luxurious, this is the one for you. Immerse yourself into the English countryside, without even leaving the continent!<br><br></div><div><br><br></div><div><br><br></div>]]></description>

However, the name predates kanji, and these characters are <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ateji"><em>ateji</em></a>, meaning that they were selected because their pronunciations match the syllables of the name but do not carry a meaning related to the mountain.</div><div>The origin of the name <em>Fuji</em> is unclear, having no recording of it being first called by this name. A text of the 9th century, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Tale_of_the_Bamboo_Cutter"><em>Tale of the Bamboo Cutter</em></a>, says that the name came from "immortal" (不死, <em>fushi, fuji</em>) and also from the image of abundant (富, <em>fu</em>) soldiers (士, <em>shi, ji</em>)<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Fuji#cite_note-8"><sup>[8]</sup></a> ascending the slopes of the mountain.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Fuji#cite_note-9"><sup>[9]</sup></a> An early <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Folk_etymology">folk etymology</a> claims that <em>Fuji</em> came from 不二 (<em>not</em> + <em>two</em>), meaning <em>without equal</em> or <em>nonpareil</em>. Another claims that it came from 不尽 (<em>not</em> + <em>to exhaust</em>), meaning <em>never-ending</em>.</div><div><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hirata_Atsutane">Hirata Atsutane</a>, a Japanese classical scholar in the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edo_period">Edo period</a>, speculated that the name is from a word meaning, "a mountain standing up shapely as an ear (穂, <em>ho</em>) of a rice plant". British missionary John Batchelor (1854–1944) argued that the name is from the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ainu_language">Ainu</a> word for "fire" (<em>fuchi</em>) of the fire deity <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kamuy-huci">Kamui Fuchi</a>, which was denied by a Japanese linguist <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ky%C5%8Dsuke_Kindaichi">Kyōsuke Kindaichi</a> on the grounds of phonetic development (<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_change">sound change</a>). It is also pointed out that <em>huchi</em> means an "old woman" and <em>ape</em> is the word for "fire", <em>ape huchi kamuy</em> being the fire deity. Research on the distribution of place names that include <em>fuji</em> as a part also suggest the origin of the word <em>fuji</em> is in the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yamato_people">Yamato</a> language rather than Ainu. Japanese toponymist Kanji Kagami argued that the name has the same root as <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wisteria">wisteria</a> (藤, <em>fuji</em>) and rainbow (虹, <em>niji</em>, but with an alternative reading, <em>fuji</em>), and came from its "long well-shaped slope".<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Fuji#cite_note-10"><sup>[10]</sup></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Fuji#cite_note-11"><sup>[11]</sup></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Fuji#cite_note-12"><sup>[12]</sup></a><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Fuji#cite_note-13"><sup>[13]</sup></a></div><div>Modern linguist <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_Vovin">Alexander Vovin</a> proposes an alternative hypothesis based on Old Japanese reading */puⁿzi/: the word may have been borrowed from Eastern Old Japanese */pu nusi/ 火主 meaning 'fire master', see <a href="https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E5%AF%8C%E5%A3%AB#Etymology_3">wikt:富士#Etymology 3<br></a><br></div><div><strong><br></strong><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div>]]></description>

It is the capital and the most populous city in Osaka Prefecture, and the third most populous city in Japan, following Tokyo and Yokohama (both located in the Greater Tokyo Area and the Kantō region). With a population of 2.7 million in the 2020 census, it is also the largest component of the Keihanshin Metropolitan Area, the second-largest metropolitan area in Japan[4] and the 10th largest urban area in the world with more than 19 million inhabitants.[3]<br><br>Osaka was traditionally considered Japan's economic hub. By the Kofun period (300–538) it had developed into an important regional port, and in the 7th and 8th centuries, it served briefly as the imperial capital. Osaka continued to flourish during the Edo period (1603–1867) and became known as a center of Japanese culture. Following the Meiji Restoration, Osaka greatly expanded in size and underwent rapid industrialization. In 1889, Osaka was officially established as a municipality. The construction boom accelerated population growth throughout the following decades, and by the 1900s, Osaka was the industrial hub in the Meiji and Taishō periods. Osaka made noted contributions to redevelopment, urban planning and zoning standards in the postwar period, the city developed rapidly as one of the major financial center in the Keihanshin Metropolitan Area.<br><br>Osaka is a major financial center of Japan, and its recognized as one of the most multicultural and cosmopolitan cities in Japan. The city is home to the Osaka Securities Exchange as well as the headquarters of multinational electronics corporation such as Panasonic and Sharp. Osaka is an international center of research and development and is represented by several major universities, notably the Osaka University, Osaka Metropolitan University and Kansai University.

Over fourteen million people (22.2 percent) lived within the surrounding <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bangkok_Metropolitan_Region">Bangkok Metropolitan Region</a> at the 2010 census, making Bangkok an extreme <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primate_city">primate city</a>, dwarfing Thailand's other urban centres in both size and importance to the national economy.<br><br></div><div><br>Bangkok traces its roots to a small trading post during the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayutthaya_Kingdom">Ayutthaya Kingdom</a> in the 15th century, which eventually grew and became the site of two capital cities, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thonburi_Kingdom">Thonburi</a> in 1768 and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rattanakosin_Kingdom_(1782%E2%80%931932)">Rattanakosin</a> in 1782. Bangkok was at the heart of the modernization of Siam, later renamed Thailand, during the late-19th century, as the country faced pressures from the West. The city was at the centre of Thailand's political struggles throughout the 20th century, as the country abolished absolute monarchy, adopted constitutional rule, and underwent numerous coups and several uprisings. The city, incorporated as a special administrative area under the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bangkok_Metropolitan_Administration">Bangkok Metropolitan Administration</a> in 1972, grew rapidly during the 1960s through the 1980s and now exerts a significant impact on Thailand's politics, economy, education, media and modern society.<br><br></div><div><br>The <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiger_Cub_Economies">Asian investment boom</a> in the 1980s and 1990s led many multinational corporations to locate their regional headquarters in Bangkok. The city is now a regional force in finance and business. It is an international hub for transport and health care, and has emerged as a centre for the arts, fashion, and entertainment. The city is known for its street life and cultural landmarks, as well as its <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red-light_district">red-light districts</a>.

Bangkok is among the world's top tourist destinations, and has been named the world's most visited city consistently in several international rankings.<br><br></div><div><br>Bangkok's rapid growth coupled with little <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urban_planning">urban planning</a> has resulted in a haphazard cityscape and inadequate infrastructure. Despite an extensive <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expressway_Authority_of_Thailand">expressway network</a>, an inadequate road network and substantial private car usage have led to chronic and crippling <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traffic_congestion">traffic congestion</a>, which caused severe air pollution in the 1990s. The city has since turned to public transport in an attempt to solve the problem, operating <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rail_transport_in_Bangkok">five rapid transit lines</a> and building other public transit, but congestion still remains a prevalent issue.

There are two towns, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Svolv%C3%A6r">Svolvær</a> and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leknes">Leknes</a> - the latter is approximately 169 km (105 mi) north of the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arctic_Circle">Arctic Circle</a> and approximately 2,420 km (1,500 mi) away from the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_Pole">North Pole</a>.
