Kentucky is home to some amazing rock formations, from Natural Bridge to Silvermine Arch. But did you know there’s another fascinating rock collection in the state that’s a doppelgänger of one of the world’s most famous formations? In Munfordville, there is a place known as Kentucky Stonehenge, and it’s a worldly wonder for your Bluegrass bucket list.

This is Stonehenge, the world's most famous archeological ruins and an English icon that archaeologists and historians date as far back to 3000 BC.
