Winter solstice (yule) at stonehenge

People who follow a pagan based religion gather at stonehenge and are allowed on the site with the iconic stones to celebrate yule. It is a festive gathering held around the 21st December, the shortest day of the year. It is the day we welcome back the sun as from this day, sunlight hours get longer each day until the summer solstice on around June 21st.
