The Stonehenge of Manipur is an ancient pre-historic megalithic monument in the northern mountains of Willong Khullen, a village in Manipur, India. It has been likened to England's megalith at Stonehenge. [1] [2] [3] Legend says the gigantic stone structures located at the site were originally erected by the forefathers of the present day Maram people. [3]
