Take a live guided tour of the Atwood Sphere and identify stars and the constellations they form.
El misterio envuelve este yacimiento Patrimonio de la Humanidad de 5.000 años. ¡Visite este monumento y decida si Stonehenge es un lugar que fue diseñado para el culto al Sol, como parte de un gigantesco calendario astronómico o algo completamente diferente! Una visita que inspirará a toda la familia, Stonehenge es un poderoso recordatorio de las impresionantes edades de Piedra y Bronce. Cada fase de Stonehenge era una estructura circular, alineadas con la salida del Sol durante el solsticio. Erigido entre el 3.000 y el 1.600 A.C., las piedras fueron transportadas cientos de quilómetros a través de tierra y mar, mientras se usaban astas y huesos para cavar los pozos que contienen las piedras. Las técnicas arqueológicas modernas, así como las excavaciones recientes, han ayudado a modelar las nuevas teorías acercas de estas losas, pero su propósito final continúa siendo un misterio fascinante. Llegadas a Stonehenge (información importante para Grupos) Ahora Stonehenge pide a los conductores de autobús y los liders o guías de los grupos que tengan preparado su número de reserva correcto al llegar a Stonehenge. Esto ayudará a los trabajadores a asegurar que haya la mínima cola posible. Durante las épocas con muchas visitas no se podrá ser flexible para la entrada de grupos que lleguen más tarde de la hora indicada. Aún así, se entiende que a veces pueden ocurrir los retrasos y se intentará acomodar los grupos lo mejor posible. Por favor tenga en cuenta que los grupos DEBEN BAJAR SIEMPRE en los sitios habilitados para ello y siempre cuando el autobús haya aparcado definitivamente. Si su autobús / autocar tiene la puerta para pasajeros en la parte derecha, vaya directamente al aparcamiento para autocares antes de que los visitantes bajen. Nota para Séniors y Estudiantes: Los trabajadores en Stonehenge pedirán una identificación válida a todos los visitantes que lleven una entrada para Sénior o Estudiante. Por favor lleve un documento de identificación válido en estos casos para que no haya problemas.
