Scotland
Country
Scotland,
the U.K.’s northernmost country, is a land of mountain wildernesses
such as the Cairngorms and Western Highlands, interspersed with glacial
glens (valleys) and lochs (lakes). Its major cities are Edinburgh, the
capital, loomed over by its iconic castle, and Glasgow, famed for its
vibrant cultural scene. Scotland is also the ‘home of golf’, typified by
the 16th-century Old Course at St Andrews.
