Being in the centre of one of the world's earliest cultures, it was mapped to the course of the sun and moon by the ancient people.


It comprises of Sarsen stones, brought from Marlborough Downs some 30km away and the smaller Bluestones, so-named as they turn blue when wet, are from the mystical Preseli Mountains in Wales which is about 385km away...


Although Stonehenge is not the largest stone circle in the world, the one thing that makes it unique is that it has lintels around the top.


Nobody knows the truth on how these stones get to stand upright cos it required sheer muscle power and hundreds of men to even move them, the heaviest probably weighing abt 45 000 kg.


There was a myth though that giants had helped the Great Wizard Merlin to build Stonehenge in the Arthurian legends.


Whatever it is, we can expect on this June 21st, during the summer solstice, which is the longest day of the year, there are sure to be a lot of visitors to this amazing monument..

Journeying through the English countryside, we stopped by a traditional English Pub called The Bell..





.. to have a traditional English Roast Beef Lunch and I-dunno-wat (but it sure was delicious).

Another world heritage site is the The Roman Baths in the English City of Bath.



With a temple dedicated to the ancient Pagan deity with healing powers, Sulis Minerva, it is said that this was the site where a lot of worshippers gathered to pray and make sacrifices to the goddess.


This also acted as a public bath house to which men and women alike can enjoy a luxurious warm swim in The Great Bath..


..or a cold plunge in The Circular Bath.


A fantastic spa indeed for the ancient Roman Britains people of Aquae Sulis.

Finally, and my most favourite part of the tour, was a visit to Stratford-Upon-Avon.



Within this charming little town, lies the birthplace of the famous playwright and poet William Shakespeare.


It was such a lovely opportunity to be able to walk through his house and read his amazing life-story




..and exclusively sipping champagne (or orange juice) and having delectable strawberry scones in his picturesque garden.
