Today I visited Stonehenge and it was a great day. Seeing it in person made the mystery of how people were able to move these stones in 2000 BC even more mesmerizing. Just like any historical monument or attraction wayfinding plays an important role in guiding people in the right direction at Stonehenge. There were several ways design helped guide us through the ancient temple today.

These signs helped us get from the parking lot to the visitor centre. They were nicely
designed in a Sans Serif font and universal symbols were used to help inform people which path to take.
|
 |
Guided maps throughout the trails today also helped direct and inform us of the sites around.
|
 |
Finally, printed brochures including a map on the back helped us find our way. The map in my opinion is
very nicely designed. It has contrast, repetition, alignment and proximity. |

Overall it was a wonderful day visiting this historical site and we didn't get lost once, all because of great design!
