Description
The Giant of Cerne Abbas is one of the most intriguing tourist attractions in the UK. This mysterious 55-meter-high statue, carved into a chalk hill, depicts a naked man with a mace.
The giant's origins are shrouded in legends - some say he is an ancient fertility deity, while others believe he is a caricature of Oliver Cromwell.
Walking through the picturesque Dorset countryside, you can admire this remarkable monument, which has fascinated scholars and tourists alike for centuries with its puzzling history and bold form.
