Hello friends, just today im back from one of the most beautiful countries. This was my 4th trip of the year and perhaps the best. I was pretty amazed with the lifestyle, funny accent, men in frock, bagpiper, culture, whiskey, highlands, low lands and everything of this wonderful country.So, as usual, im eager to share my experience with SAJAH friends through pictures. Please mind, im not a good photographer and I used ordinary 4.00 megapixel camera without powerful zoom so, please donot expect great snaps.The country was SCOTLAND, part of Great Britain/ the United Kingdom (GB or UK consists of England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland). Its half of size of Nepal and 5.1 million population.Edinburgh, the city of castle is capital city and Glasgow is the biggest city of country. Im writin this so that u could enjoy more with the pictures :-)So here we go Scotland :-)--I wd be only happy if u drop few words after viewing this thread--

33. As Nepali nari mentioned above, Edinburgh hosts one of the biggest festivals of Europe 'Edinburgh Festival'. Summer is time to be in Europe especially when summer/music festivals hit all over. Including Glastonbury festival (biggest festival of the world) and famous Roskilde Music festival (Denmark).

Amazing,
A wee bit of tip about the cities.
Aberdeen : the granite building such as Marishal college give the city its dinstinctive look thats where it got its name from Grey City. Gotta take a look and also the Aberdeen university another great landmark. There you can also enjoy a great night out and the weird thing is the clubs and pubs used to be churches and can you imagine drinking in a holy place.... loll I did... i m going to hell!!!! oh dear god. Another city in the outskirt of Aberdeen you must look is the stonehaven, a port town where they have a war memorial not sure if it is WW1 or 2. quite a walk but very good time. You will also take note of Dunnattar Castle which is dramatic and evocative ruin. As you wander around the extensive buildings you are almost surrounded by sea with sea-gulls and other seabirds wheeling and screaming around the cliff and they are fat birds very scary and loud. This castle has a very good historical event tied with William Wallace, A hero from Scotland. I am sure you will love it. Try tradditonal pub called the Prince of Wales a great place to chill out if you like the tradditional music and good company
Glasgow : To me glasgow is more industrial place, Shopping paradise and clubbing area. I do the latter two things there and also not to be missed the museum and art gallery and University of Glasgow.
Inverness: A home to lochness, grab the bus and enjoy the view and the myth. Inverness has some different angle of Scotland more quiter and unique in its own way. Great museum and art gallery, also check out the inverness castle which is now turned into Sheriff's court not sure if you can enter the building tho. I dint the other time I was there, but good place to pose a picture hehe! Eastgate shopping center, a great place to shop till you drop which i love to do but that is just a fancy area. Do take a look at the indoor Victorian Market which has shops selling Scottish souvenirs and also great things for window shopping.
I think thats all for now hope i gave enuff info! But i am sure you have done extensive research nevertheless do enjoy to the fullest!
cheers mate!
