Callanish Standing Stones

a very special area on the Isle of Lewis about 12 miles from Stornaway. these standing stones are over 2000 years older than stone henge. an atmospheric area stepped in history.

#Travel happy moments The second largest stonehenge in the UK is the Karanish stone circle in Scotland. It is an island in the Hebrides Islands outside the remote northwest corner of the UK, known as the "Edge of the World" by National Geographic. It is the most remote area in the UK, in 2900~2600 BC. Thirteen stones were erected to form a circle, and they have been fairly well preserved: from London by train to Edinburgh, Scotland, then by car to Ullapool, and then by ferry to Stonoway, the capital of the Outer Hebrides. Take the car to Loch Roag on the west coast of Lewis Island and finally arrive!

Outer Hebrides can be regarded as a remote area of the Su Heights, and you can take a boat to the sea island of Sky Island or Aleppo. But in general, the sad and desolate wilderness under the wind and rain, the narrow seaside cliff road is not a popular travel taste after all. The standing stones here has a considerable history and is relatively complete in Europe, but because there is no background knowledge about this, I have not been able to understand their possible functions. There are many unmanned islands in the Outer Hebrides, which can be returned by boat on the same day. Perhaps more suitable for vacationers who like to stay away from the city, mainly fishing in the sea and outdoor activities.
