    Unlike other stone circles, the Stones of Callanish, or "Calanais" in Gaelic, on the Isle of Lewis are not evenly hewn, giving each stone its own unique character. Furthermore, Callanish is not just a simple circle, but several interwoven geometric shapes, with a large, four-and-a-half-meter-high monolith at its center. A true stone giant. The surrounding standing stones are shorter, so it almost appears as if it rises toward the center.

      Double stone ring near the main facility.

        This stone circle is not quite as spectacular as the main prize, but definitely worth a visit!
