What travelers say:

Let me introduce this place, Arctic Henge, Arctic Stonehenge, also known as the Arctic Arch. What historical relics I thought was it, was actually built by Icelanders in 1996, and later it was rotten because the artist who built it died. I think it looks better now, it looks vicissitudes. If there is a wall, the diameter will reach 52 meters. Each arch consists of basalt pillars, which are superimposed of 72 stones, each representing different spirits, and the designer believes that the spirits have special significance in the Icelandic Edda prose system. Four arches in the southeast and west directions correspond to the seasons of the year. The arches on the same line capture the sun's rays. If the time is chosen correctly, the sunlight can be photographed straight through the arch. In this cold wind-swept arctic stonehenge, five minutes experience fire clouds and snowstorms in turn.
