The Great Sphinx and the pyramid complex at Giza is one of the most visited historical sites in the world<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The pyramid complex at Giza may be one of the most famous historical sites in the world. But their inception, construction and purpose still remain a huge mystery. The Pyramid of Djoser, which is believed to be the oldest pyramid in Egypt, dates back to 2630 BC. It was built in the Saqqara necropolis for the burial of Pharaoh Djoser.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world. The main pyramid complex close to the present-day city of Cairo comprises three larger and three smaller pyramids along with the enigmatic Great Sphinx. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Archaeologists believe the mysterious limestone sculpture with the head of a human and the body of a lion predates most of the other ancient structures in the area by 2,000 years or so. Meanwhile, the oldest and largest of the three big pyramids is the Great Pyramid of Khufu. It was built between 2589 and 2566 BC. It is also one of the only structures in the area that are mostly intact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to get there<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Those who want to visit these historical monuments can easily take a bus from Tahrir Square in Cairo. From the bus stop, they can take a short camel or horse ride to reach their destination. Given their delicate state, visitors can only access a small area inside the pyramids after paying the fee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Colosseum and Roman Forum in Italy<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Historical
You can visit the Colosseum throughout the year, just make sure to check the entrance timings<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Two of the most easily-recognized historical monuments, the Colosseum and Forum, are the crown jewel of the architectural marvel that is the city of Rome in Italy. The two sites are located right next to each other and are considered two of the most popular historical places to visit around the world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Colosseum, the world\u2019s largest amphitheatre, was built between 70 and 80 AD. It was an extremely important site in Imperial Rome, as it was used to hold gladiatorial contests, public executions, battle re-enactments and dramas. At the time, it had the capacity to accommodate up to 80,000 people at once. However, according to historians, the gigantic amphitheatre was later used as a fortress and then quarters for a Catholic order. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ancient structure has seen massive damage due to earthquakes and at the hands of stone robbers. However, it is still one of the most iconic historical sites in Europe. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, the Roman Forum is a rectangular complex that was used to be the main marketplace in ancient Rome. It was used for various social and religious activities. Its location in the centre of several prominent ruins is an indicator of its historical importance. Originally, the giant plaza had five arches, though only three have managed to survive for this long.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to get there<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Depending on where you’re staying in Rome, you can easily take a bus or Metro to visit the Colosseum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Historical
These mysterious stones have given way to a number of myths and conspiracy theories<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Stonehenge, a mysterious prehistoric monument near Salisbury in England, United Kingdom, continues to baffle archaeologists and historians to date. Built nearly 3,000 years ago, these megalithic ruins sit atop several hundred burial mounds. The stones, which form a massive circle, were brought here from miles away in Wales. Given the fact that each stone is about 13 feet high and 7 feet wide, it\u2019s hard to imagine how they were transported to this location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The exact purpose and the peculiar arrangement of Stonehenge have always been a huge mystery. This historical monument has given way to many myths and conspiracy theories. Some believe it could have been a place to practice religion or witchcraft. Meanwhile, others theorize it could have served as an astronomical observatory in ancient times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Considered one of the top historical places to visit in England, Stonehenge draws over a million tourists each year. It is important to note the main circle between the stones has now been closed for the public. That means visitors are only allowed to walk around the pre-historic monument and take photographs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, that doesn\u2019t really take away from the experience now, does it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to get there <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you’re staying in London, you can take a direct train from Waterloo to Salisbury. It’ll take you about an hour and a half to reach your destination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
