Popular places in Scotland
Edinburgh. No visit to Scotland is
complete without a visit to Edinburgh, the gateway to the rest of the
country. With a stunning location and a rich history Edinburgh offers
a feast of things to see and do. It is so compact that all its
contrasting sights can easily be explored on foot from the medieval
wynds and cobbles of the Old Town to the leafy avenues and Georgian
elegance of the New Town. Try climbing Arthur’s Seat, sample the local
Caledonian 80/ Ale and enjoy the view at sunset from Calton Hill. Take
a train out to admire the twin Forth Bridges at South Queensferry.
Edinburgh is now home to the Scottish Parliament and all the
traditional images of Scotland are here - tartan, bagpipes, fine malt
whisky and dramatic scenery. Edinburgh has a a lively arts scene –
most notably celebrated every summer in the Edinburgh International
Festival which, together with its irreverent Fringe, is one of the
greatest arts festivals in the world.
Glasgow. Glasgow is a city that is
no longer willing to play second fiddle to Edinburgh. It may not
be the capital, but it is the biggest city in the country. During the
1980s Glasgiw cleaned itself up and reinvented itself, with trendy
bars, restaurants and shops opening in former warehouses. This
renaissance was capped with the designation ‘Glasgow European City of
Culture’ in 1990 and ‘UK City of Architecture and Design’ in 1999.
Today Glasgow is renowned for the range and quality of its fine art
galleries and museums.
