Emerald-green fields, hills covered by heather, sheep herds, lakes, beautiful castles and forts. The character of the country in the Northern part of the British Isles can not be missed. Because of their monument status, the castle of Edinburgh and 16 thousand other buildings are under protection.
During the summer, several festivals and cultural events await visitors. The old castles, forts and monasteries tell us about a long and eventful past and such heroes as Wallace ‘The Braveheart’ or Rob Roy. Their deeds were sung by such Scottish poets and writers as Sir Walter Scott, Robert Louis Stevenson or Robert Burns. Scotland is famous for its Celtic monuments, the beautiful landscape of the Highlands and the monster of Loch Ness.
