Scotland
Scotland is a land of scenic splendour. The dramatic Highland with their snow-capped mountains, wooded glens and shining lochs give way to the salmon rivers, rich farmland and picturesque fishing villages of the Lowlands.
This is the land of tartans and fine whisky, of romantic castles and the melodies of bagpipes. Scotland also has a rich cultural heritage. The lively Highland Games take place up and down the country between May and September. At many a gathering, you'll see events like tossing the caber, throwing the hammer and sword dancing, accompanied by the pipes and the beat of massed drums. The appeals of Scotland are undoubtedly unique and the hospitality of the Scottish people will make your visit one to be remem-bered.
Edinburgh, Scotland's gracious capital city, is dominated by its Vth-century castle. At the heart of the old medieval town is the Royal Mile, which leads to the country's finest royal palace, Holyroodhouse. In contrast is the New Town, the Edinburgh of attractive squares, tree-lined streets and elegant houses. The city's rich cultural heritage is highlighted by its Interna¬tional Festival in August.
Glasgow is the heart of the arts in Scotland and exuberant festivals such as the International Jazz Festival have been widely recognized. The city also has some of the finest museums and galleries in Europe. These include the magnificent Burrel Collection, the Art Gallery and Museum in Kelvingrove, and the McLellan Galleries.
In1992, Scotland commemorated the 450th anniversary of the birth of Mary, Queen of Scots. Mary reigned in Scotland for only seven years; yet the romance, intrigue and mystery surrounding her life have made her a legendary figure. Visit her birthplace at Linlithgow Palace, her coronation site at Stirling Castle, Loch Leven Castle where as a prisoner she was forced to sign a deed of abdication, and Dundrennan Abbey where she spent her night in Scotland.
