Loch Ness & Urquhart Castle & Inverness & Dunnottar Castle & Cairngorms National Park [ Aug 2016 ]
Heading on Northern place, so northern province in UK.
This is my thought. If the some province are northern place which is cold area , I should travel high-land during this season.
Of course,but, It could be beautiful in winter. In winter, it’s not easy to travel in cold places. Also, comparing with summer, isn’t beautiful.
Following the obvious post, for next places, after having my lunch,
I thought it reminds me the view of Ireland ‘Dark hedges’…?
Nope…?Ya.Whatever…
‘Loch Ness’ is a large, deep, freshwater loch in the Scottish Highlands extending for approximately 37 km southwest of ‘Inverness’
Its surface is 16m above sea level. ‘Loch Ness’ is best known for alleged sightings of the cryptozoological Loch Ness Monster, also known affectionately as “Nessie”
There’s in Scottish folklore, the ‘Loch Ness’ Monster or ‘Nessie’ is a creature said to inhabit ‘Loch Ness’ in the Scottish Highlands.
It is often described as large in size with a long neck and one or more humps protruding from the water
It’s not easy to see like this beautiful sky in Scotland. In summer, enjoy ur sunshine.
=======================================
Large, ruined castle dating from 1509, overlooking ‘Loch Ness’, with visitor centre and cafe.
‘Urquhart Castle’ sits beside ‘Loch Ness’ in the Highlands of Scotland. The castle is on the A82 road, 21km south-west of ‘Inverness’ n 2km east of the village of ‘Drumnadrochit’
The present ruins date from the 13th to the 16th centuries, though built on the site of an early medieval fortificatio.
========================================
This was the most northern place in Scotland I visited
‘Inverness’
‘Greig Street Bridge’ is the most beautiful spot in this city.
‘Inverness’ is a city on Scotland’s northeast coast, where the Riv.Ness meets the ‘Moray Firth’. It’s the largest city and the cultural capital of the Scottish Highlands.
Its old town features 19th-century ‘Inverness’ Cathedral, the mostly 18th-century old high church and an indoor ‘Victorian Market’ selling food, clothing and crafts.
========================================
‘Dunnottar Castle’ is a ruined medieval fortress located upon a rocky headland on the north-east coast of Scotland, about 3km south of Stonehaven.
The surviving buildings are largely of the 15 n 16th centuries, but the site is believed to have been fortified in the Early Middle Ages
Was damn cool old-castle ever, eh?
It wasn’t cool like that when it had been made in the middle-ages.
========================================
As googling, I had wanted to travel in northern-west ‘Isle Sky’.
But I didn’t have times within 4 days trip in Scotland. So I recommend that Island even it’s so far away from Glasgow or Edinburgh.
‘Cairngorms National Park’ is in north east Scotland, established in 2003.
Grantown on Spey PH26 3HG
It was the second of two national parks established by the Scottish Parliament, after ‘Loch Lomond’ n ‘The Trossachs National Park’, set up in 2002.
The park covers the ‘Cairngorms’ range of mountains, and surrounding hills.
========================================
Even it’s a day trip in high-land, was so cool trip for tourist. Is it not easy to travel in Scotland even living in UK,eh?
So, Scotland was quite good choice for us.
Besides, as googling, I had wanted to travel in northern-west ‘Isle Sky’.
