Stonehenge is one of the ancient mysteries of the world. Noone knows 100% how it got there or what its purpose is.

The Cotswolds is a picturesque rural area in the south-central region of England. I can’t recall if I actually went there or not. I imagine I at least passed through it while traveling around the south of England.
