Located in the Kanegom Mountain National Park, the Royal Di River Valley Disai and the Locknagar Mountain National Scenic Area (the Deeside and Lochnagar National Scenic Area), Balmoral Fort covers 50,000 acres (about 20,000 hectares), containing a variety of landscapes, mountains and rivers, beautiful scenery. The castle and manor house consists of stone-covered hills and ancient Scottish woodland, surrounded by mountains and flowing rivers, extremely elegant. Due to the arrival of the royals, the Fort Balmoral has been continuously expanded and the facilities have gradually been complete. During her reign, Queen Victoria designed and built the royal hunting grounds herself, and the rest included farmland, gardens, pastures, a large number of beautiful flowers, and herds of deer, highland cattle, and ponies.

Aberdeen Art Gallery If the art museum is a separate building, it is also a unique artistic beauty. It is worth seeing. The hall is very high. The glass windows are very well lit. The overall feeling is bright and atmospheric, so beautiful!

Inverness Castle is the highest in Inverness. When you arrive at the accommodation, you will immediately run to the castle. The river bank is pleasant along the way. Speaking of the road, there are almost no people walking around. When you go to the castle, you will find it in the renovation. You have to go around and go down the block. By the way, use it. Europeans are very casual, many shops are playing foreign, find a home willing to receive me, buy a pair of rainbow rain shoes, so beautiful, it is the most worthwhile souvenir of my life (currently)^^

Although we have a Historic Environment Scotland membership, we love exploring these free locations too. Unstaffed and free to enter, it has a small car park (about 8 spaces) but there is a short, steepish path to the main gate. Once inside though, this barracks is a great historic gem. Thoroughly recommended.

Lovely place with a great 360 view on the city of Edinburgh down below. From one side you can see the Edinburgh castle and the Balmoral hotel, then if you keep turning on the left you can admire Arthur Seat in all of its glory. And you can spot the sea behind it.If you keep turning you can see up to Leith, the shore and then the all Firth of Forth.On sunny days you can see the isle of Inchkeith.And you can even spot the other side of the Forth Bridges.I would definitely suggest to come during the day and a second time to watch the sun set behind the castle.If you come on the 30 of April (with a ticket) you can witness the Beltane Fire Festival. A pagan celebration of the death of winter and the coming of spring/summer

In January, I first traveled to the Scottish Highlands. I saw that the same traveler had both letters and the same appearance of the cow, so I searched for a real body there! This cow is really proud to have long hair to cover 2 eyes. Taiwanese also call it "Jayden Cow" 😂😂.
