GREAT BRITAIN ATTRACTIONS TOWER BRIDGE About 50 bridge projects were submitted to the commission, but due to the large number of disputes within the organization, it took as much as 8 years to approve that iconic bridge design. 432 workers took part in its construction, which also took 8 years. Tower Bridge connects the equally popular Tower Museum and Tower Bridge Road, which is why it got its name. Tower Bridge can be considered one of the most accessible attractions in London, which is so famous for the high cost of entrance tickets. Despite the huge weight and length of 61 meters, the wings rise within one minute. BEING INSIDE STONEHENGE Stonehenge appeared, according to scientists, about 5000 years ago, while it was built in several stages over 2000 years. Stonehenge consists of 82 five-ton megaliths, 30 twenty-five-ton blocks, five fifty-ton triliths and one six-ton altar. The position of the cromlech stones is closely related to the positions of the moon and the sun — this is especially noticeable during the winter and summer solstices.The archaeological site is located in the English county of Wiltshire, just 130 km from London. To wander along the stones and even more so to touch them will not work, because they are behind fences. But, within the framework of paid excursions, such an opportunity is provided for visits by small groups of people.
