The Callanish Standing Stones are a remarkable ancient site on the Isle of Lewis, Scotland. They are a group of 13 stones arranged in a circle, with four rows of smaller stones radiating from it. They were erected around 5,000 years ago and may have been used for astronomical observations or rituals.

Lovely stone circle. It gets busy so get there early or late if you want a picture that’s not rammed with people
