SCOTLAND'S  BIGGEST  
TOURIST  ATTRACTIONS
Edinburgh Castle
Edinburgh Castle is a  historic  fortress which dominates the  skyline  of the city of 
Edinburgh, Scotland from its  position  on the Castle Rock. 
The oldest building in the castle, and in Edinburgh, is the smal  St.  Margaret 's 
Chapel
One of the few 12th- century   structures  surviving in any Scottish castle,[38] it 
dates  from the  reign  of King David I (r.1124–1153), who  built  it as a private 
chapel for the royal family and  dedicated  it to his  mother , Saint Margaret of 
Scotland, who died in the castle in 1093. 
The castle has sheltered many Scottish monarchs. They include  Queen  
Margaret ( later  St Margaret), who died here in 1093, and  Mary  Queen of Scots, 
who  gave  birth to James VI in the Royal Palace in  1566 .
Eilean Donan 
Eilean Donan is a smal   island  in  Loch  Duich in the  western  Highlands of 
Scotland. Connected to the mainland by a footbridge, the island is dominated by 
a picturesque medieval castle. The  original  castle was built in the  early  13th 
century as a defense against the  VikingsToday , the castle is one of the most 
photographed monuments in Scotland and a  popular  venue for weddings and 
film  locations.
Loch  Ness  
One of the most famous  lakes  in the world, Loch Ness is the second largest loch 
in Scotland after Loch Lomond. 
About a mile wide at most places it holds the legend of an infamous sea 
monster . The most notorious mythical creature of modern time, Nessie, is said to 
dwel  in the lake. With an air of  mystery , the intriguing area of Loch Ness should 
not be missed. 
WHERE I WANT TO GO
Luskentyre  Beach  
Luskentyre beach is situated on the spectacular  west  coast of  South   Harris  in 
the  Outer  Hebrides. One of the most beautiful  color -washed  coastal  areas of 
Scotland, its blue- green  seas shimmer against creamy sands and the vibrant 
green hil side.
Elcho Castle 
Elcho Castle is a handsome and  complete  16th century fortified mansion with 
three projecting  towers  on the  banks  of the  River  Tay.
The remarkably complete house of the 1500s was the country retreat of the 
wealthy Wemyss family.
It is managed by Historic Scotland and is  open  to visitors  throughout  the 
summer
I think that Scotland is very 
interesting and it is a very beautiful 
country.
     
      Thank you for  watching ! :)

Report of SCOTLAND Maiki Joakit 10. klass 2008 Etymology Scotland is from the Latin Scoti, the term applied to Gaels. The Late Latin word Scotia (land of the Gaels) was initially used to refer to Ireland. By the 11th century at the latest, Scotia was being used to refer to (Gaelic-speaking) Scotland north of the river Forth, alongside Albania or Albany, both derived from the Gaelic Alba. The use of the words Scots and Scotland to encompass all of what is now Scotland became common in the Late Middle Ages. History Repeated glaciations, which covered the entire land-mass of modern Scotland, have destroyed any traces of human habitation that may have existed before the Mesolithic period. It is believed that the first post-glacial groups of hunter-gatherers arrived in Scotland around 12,800 years ago, as the ice sheet retreated after the last glaciation. Groups of settlers began building the first known permanent houses on Scottish soil around 9,500
