Avebury, located in Wiltshire, United Kingdom, is home to one of the world's largest and most impressive Neolithic stone circles. Dating back to around 2600 BCE, the Avebury complex is part of a larger prehistoric landscape that includes the nearby Silbury Hill and West Kennet Long Barrow. Unlike Stonehenge, visitors can walk freely among the stones, providing a more immersive experience. The site is managed by the National Trust and is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Its purpose remains a mystery, but it is believed to have been used for ceremonial or ritualistic activities.
