Scotland is a small northern European country that holds many treasures within its borders. From remarkable wildlife and vast landscapes to delicious food and friendly people, Scotland is unlike anywhere else. Mountain wildernesses cover Scotland’s landscape such as the Cairngorms and the Northwest Highlands that are peppered with ‘glacial glens’ (valleys) and ‘lochs’ (lakes). Castles and vivacious cultural scenes can be found in major cities such as Edinburgh, the capital, and Glasgow. The first game of golf was played in Scotland and many travelers come to play on the green courses here still. see moresee less
