Stonehenge - Wiltshire - England

This prehistoric monument in Wiltshire, England is one of the most famous sites in the world. Stonehenge is located near the A303 road which branches away from the southbound M3 motorway. It’s incredibly easy to find if you’re a tourist arriving at London Heathrow. As you leave Heathrow, drive south on the M25 and take the M3 motorway (the signposts say M3 to Southampton.) As you drive on the M3, look for the A303 exit. You can see Stonehenge from the A303. Check-out this map for the exact location, “X” marks the spot:
