As February"s chill sweeps across Europe, so does the anticipation of the Six Nations Championship that is back for its 25th edition. Today marks the beginning of the rugby saga where six proud nations—England, France, Ireland, Italy, Scotland and Wales—clash in a test of might, strategy and heart. While this year"s opening match will be held in France, let"s take you to the world"s largest rugby stadium, which will host England"s home Six Nations matches—Twickenham Stadium. Beyond the games, Twickenham offers an immersive experience with its World Rugby Museum and an array of sculptures that pay homage to the sport. Pictured here is artist Gerald Laing"s creation, "The Spirit of Rugby – Line-Out." England is set to play two home fixtures here. Are you ready to don the colours, join the chants and be a part of history in the making?
