The castle was built in the 14th century AD and was the property of the Scottish royal family. In 1372, Sir John Leon of the British family married the daughter of the then King of Scotland and inherited the castle, which has been more than 600 years old. Since then, the castle has officially become the private estate of the Leon family, and was rebuilt by the famous architect of the Leon family, Patrick • Leon. From the early 17th century, Patrick Leon developed a detailed plan for the castle renovation and made some bold designs, such as raising the tower and laying a boulevard leading to the main entrance. The converted castle blends Scottish and French styles: A group of French Normandy-style corner towers surround the classical Scottish towers.

Stone-Ston, whose defensive walls have the reputation of "Europe's Great Wall of China", only an hour walk to visit the town! The ruins are broken, but the world is independent by the sea, and the beauty is crying. Here you can feel the residential houses in the old castle and maintain the medieval atmosphere of life.

"Thank you to all, and to all who were present, for coming to Sconnen Palace at our invitation." When I had not known Sconnen Palace, I had read the classic phrase in Macbeth, and I came to Scotland to know the allusion. When he first arrived in Scotland, it was said that to see Scotland, it was from the Palace of Sconn, because the first king after the reunification of Scotland was crowned here, and the stone of fate was brought to Mount Moot, opening the river of new history in Scotland. In the palace of Sconn, the collection of the Earl family's five hundred years of fine art, what Martin paint, paper paste art, clocks, etc., whether ornaments or photographs, each is a record of the glory of a family. And the entire back garden is more than 400 years of history.

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.

Crees Castle and its surrounding area cover a total area of 2.1 square kilometers, including 16,000 square meters of walled gardens. A 16th century castle, a 20th century art garden, Crees Castle Garden is known as "West Singhurst (Sissinghurst) in Scotland". Since the end of the 16th century, the ancient building has stood alone in the jungle wilderness, faithfully guarding the Burnett family. After entering the 20th century, Sir James Burnett built a garden here, surrounded by walls, full of trees, beautiful flowers and plants. The lush trees and blooming flowers surrounded the castle of Cress, entering here, as if entering the fairy tale kingdom of dreams, can spread all the beautiful imagination of a person.
