A3. These standing stones are the prehistoric Bodach and Cailleach on Gigha (#InnerHebrides surprise, surprise) - thought to represent a man and woman. Similarly to most standing stones around Scotland (and elsewhere), we really don't know how old they are. #trlt

replying to @HeidiSiefkas @HeidiSiefkas A2 I don't know...but the Tashkent Metro was opened in 1977. #TRLT It was only in 2018 that the Uzbek Government allowed tourists to take photos of it.

A3: Estimated to be at least 5,000 years old, Las Geel in Somaliland is home to some of the most impressive rock art anywhere in the world. It comprises about a dozen individual painted shelters that can be seen from miles away! #TRLT

A4: Windsor Castle! Round the corner from our office in the Chilterns, it is the oldest occupied castle in the world. This is a must-see for visitors interested in royal history, you never know – you might even catch sight of the Queen! #TRLT

A3: One of the oldest historical places that I've visited is Tulum's ancient Mayan city, the pre Columbian Coba ruins in Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula were settled between 50 BC - 100 AD.

replying to @BradtGuides @BradtGuides @TheTravelCamel @ShebsAlom Bradford in the UK...I returned 2 years ago after spending 10 years living in Indonesia. #TRLT This was my house in Cirebon - a 3.5 hour train ride from Jakarta.

#Kakadu @NT_Australia with paintings up to 20K years old are some of the oldest in existence - the skeletal form of lightning man is my particular favourite #TRLT A3

A4: West Wycombe in the #Chilterns. Partly for West Wycombe Park, historic home of the Dashwoods. Also for the spooky HellFire Caves in which (legend says) a baboon leapt on to the shoulders of a terrified Lord Sandwich, who thought it was the Devil! @LindaPeters64 #TRLT

#trlt A4: I used to live in England, which is full of castles. Near where I lived lie Conisbrough, Sandal, & Newark; all were active in the 1400s, & Newark was even important in the 1200s.
Not necessarily much left of some of them, but you just know you're walking in history.

A4: Orkney's Skara Brae is Britain’s earliest-known Neolithic village, and dates back about 5,000 years. This is a fantastic spot for visitors looking to immerse themselves in the Bay of Skaill’s unique archaeological history! #TRLT

A4:This is Iao Valley, a state historical site. It was a place of Hawaiian royalty as well as a bloody battle. It is a beautiful valley with a fresh water river perfect for a sustainable settlement. via @LindaPeters64 #TRLT #traveltuesday
