My favorite place is Stonehenge. Stonehenge was built 5000 years ago but the legends say that it was built by gods. The Stonehenge, this huge rectangular earthwork enclosure 1.7 miles long, seen from the air in 2000.

The earliest structures known in the immediate area are four or five pits, three of which appear to have held large pine ‘totem-pole like’ posts erected in the Mesolithic period, between 8500 and 7000 BC.It is not known how these posts relate to the later monument of Stonehenge.
