Mystery surrounds this 5,000 year old World Heritage Site. Visit this pre-historic South West monument and decide for yourself whether Stonehenge was designed as a place of sun worship, or as part of a huge astronomical calendar, or something different altogether! An awe-inspiring family visit, Stonehenge is a powerful reminder of the once-great Stone and Bronze Ages. Each phase of Stonehenge was a circular structure, aligned with the rising sun at the solstice. Erected between 3,000 BC and 1,600 BC, the stones were carried hundreds of miles over land and sea, while antlers and bones were used to dig the pits that hold the stones. Modern techniques in archaeology, and the series of recent digs, have helped to shape new theories about the stones, but their ultimate purpose remains a fascinating and enduring mystery. Arriving at Stonehenge (important Information for Groups) Stonehenge now ask that coach drivers and tour leaders/guides have their correct booking reference number(s) ready on arrival at Stonehenge. This will help Site Staff ensure we keep queues to a minimum. During busy periods they will unfortunately be restricted in their flexibility for providing entry to groups turning up outside of their time slot. However, they understand that delays happen so we will of course try to accommodate your groups as best we can. Please be advised that under no circumstances must groups disembark except at the designated drop-off bay and only once your coach is fully parked. If your coach has the passenger door located on the right-hand side, please proceed directly to a coach parking bay before disembarkation. Note for Seniors and Students: The Staff at Stonehenge ask that any persons carrying vouchers for Student and/or Senior concessions please also carry valid identification. This is to avoid any unecessary embarrasment or misunderstanding if you are asked for proof on arrival.

Historic setting: The Household Cavalry Museum sits within Horse Guards in Whitehall, central London, one of the city’s most historic buildings. Dating from 1750, it is still the headquarters of the Household Division, in which the Household Cavalry has performed the Queen’s Life Guard in a daily ceremony that has remained broadly unchanged for over 350 years. The Household Cavalry: The Household Cavalry was formed in 1661 under the direct order of King Charles II and now consists of the two senior regiments of the British Army – The Life Guards and the Blues and Royals. We have two roles: as a mounted regiment (on horseback), we guard Her Majesty The Queen on ceremonial occasions in London and across the UK and are a key part of the Royal pageantry; as an operational regiment we serve around the world in armoured fighting vehicles. We currently have units deployed on active service in Iraq and Afghanistan. Our fighting capacity is matched by our strategic role in international peace keeping and humanitarian operations. Collections: Over the centuries we have amassed an outstanding collection of rare and unique treasures from ceremonial uniforms, royal standards and gallantry awards to musical instruments, horse furniture and silverware by Fabergé. Each exhibit has its own compelling story to tell and many are on display for the very first time. You can see two silver kettledrums given to the regiment in 1831 by William IV; the pistol ball that wounded Sir Robert Hill at Waterloo and the cork leg which belonged to the first Marquess of Anglesy, who, as the Earl of Uxbridge, lost his real one at Waterloo. Modern additions to the collection include Jacky Charlton’s football cap – he did his national service with the regiment and Sefton’s bridle – the horse that was injured in the 1982 Hyde Park bombings. Much of the collection has resulted from the close association that has existed between the Household Cavalry and Royalty. We have, after all, protected successive kings and queens from rebels, rioters and assassins for nearly 350 years. Working Stable Block: Visitors can gain a unique behind-the-scenes look at our working stable block. All the horses here are on duty and at different times of the day you will see something going on - you might see the horses being brought in, groomed, fed and watered, their hooves oiled and shoes checked, their saddles adjusted ready to go on guard or just see the stables themselves being cleaned. Both our horses and riders go through a rigorous and demanding training. In the Museum's many interactive and multimedia presentations, you will hear first hand accounts of what this training is like and the techniques our soldiers use to master their horses and complete the gruelling preparations for regimental inspections.

PUENTE DE LA TORRE Hace más de 100 años, los victorianos construyeron un puente que se ha convertido en uno de los monumentos más famosos de Londres. pasarelas de alto nivel se construyeron para permitir a la gente a cruzar el Támesis mientras que el puente fue levantado para que navegan los barcos de altura pasado. Hoy en día estas pasarelas actúan como la visualización de galerías, dando a los visitantes las vistas más espectaculares de un horizonte siempre cambiante Londres. Los visitantes entran exposición del Puente de la Torre a través de la torre norte. Luego son transportados por ascensor hasta la cima de la torre (47 metros sobre el Támesis) donde tienen una oportunidad única de ver el esqueleto de acero del puente desde dentro. Una película corta explica la historia y procedencia del puente y luego está la oportunidad de admirar las espectaculares vistas - de ambas pasarelas cubiertas. En la pasarela al este hay unas vistas fantásticas de la zona portuaria y del occidente Calzada se puede ver el nuevo edificio de GLA, la Torre de Londres, San Pablo, la ciudad, la piscina de Londres y el Big Ben y el London Eye en la distancia. quioscos computarizados interactivos y paneles gráficos explican la importancia de los puntos de vista a los visitantes, además de proporcionar más información sobre la historia y la construcción del puente. El material interactivo y paneles gráficos están escritos en siete lenguas y un bucle de audio para personas con problemas de audición también está en su lugar para el espectáculo de vídeo. Hay otra película para ver en la torre sur, antes de descender para el paseo a las salas de máquinas históricas, incluido en el precio del billete. Salas de Máquinas Victorianas Estos proporcionan una visión fascinante de la ingeniería finales del siglo 19. Instalado para la realización del puente de la torre en 1894, estos enormes, y muy bien cuidados, se utilizaron motores de carbón impulsada para alimentar a los miles de ascensores puente levadizo realizadas hasta 1976. A pesar de que los ascensores están operados por electricidad, las máquinas de vapor originales todavía están en lugar. Las salas de máquinas dan a los visitantes la oportunidad de experimentar con modelos de demostración de la tecnología detrás del puente. También hay algunas fotografías asombrosas del puente a lo largo de su ciclo de vida - incluyendo una imagen reveladora de la estructura de acero pesado del puente como el revestimiento de piedra se instaló sobre ella.
