Scotland

While most people instantly conjure up images of Edinburgh and the Highlands or tartan and tweed when they think of Scotland, the northern nation is actually home to a host of breath-takingly beautiful islands.

Home to lots of wonderful countryside and dramatic landscapes, Scotland lies in the north of Great Britain and is famous for the majestic lochs and age-old castles that are dotted about the gorgeous Scottish Highlands.

The capital of Scotland, Edinburgh is a profoundly historical city with an amazingly well preserved old center.

A land of unimaginable beauty, the sprawling highlands of Scotland are delightfully wild and free and as such any nature lover will surely depart having fallen in love with all of the amazing sights on offer.

They’re rugged, scenic and starkly beautiful. Some have legendary monsters swimming in them.

Perched on a small tidal island in the western Highlands, this is the kind of landmark that makes drivers hit the brakes and passengers reach for their cameras.

Once an industrial powerhouse, this energetic city has reinvented itself as a major cultural hub filled with creativity and character.

The beauty and history of Scotland are never hidden. It’s seen on the streets of Edinburgh and Glasgow, or along the shining coasts of its isles.

Scottish castles are a photographer’s dream.

History and heritage sweep across Scotland from Highlands to Lowlands, from Orkney to the Hebrides.

At first glance, the Scottish landscape is harsh: foreboding fortresses atop hills and cliffs, the desolate moors… But spend some time here and you’ll quickly realize Scotland has its own unique beauty: breathtaking highlands, craggy coastlines, and blue lakes and rivers just made for fishing.

One of the most beautiful cities in the United Kingdom, atmospheric Edinburgh lies in a scenic spot, overlooking the sea.
