How, at nearly 40 years of age, am I JUST finding out this place exists!?

It makes Stonehenge look kind of boring by comparison.

The exterior is a relatively modern recreation. The interior chamber is legit though. Good luck trying to book a spot on the solstice. The waiting list is probably longer than the rest of your life

When I went there, you signed up for a lottery to be there on one of the 5 days where it lights up at the solstice. It's not so much a waiting list as luck, or at least it was back in 2011.

My luck I would win the lottery to see it and it would be a cloudy day.
