Behold the great stone circles of Britain. No it’s not Stonehenge, these are the lesser known standing stones of Callanish (or Calanais if you speak Gaelic). Found on the Isle of Lewis in the Outer Hebrides, these stones are partially submerged in the ground in a mysterious circular formation similar to that of Stonehenge. Although whoever erected these stones did one better than those down in the south of England, as there are more than one set of circles.
Of course similar to their English cousins, their actual use and origins are a mystery. They are another set of stones shrouded by lore and intrigue.
If this isn’t on your list of places to visit, it should be!
