Escotland: Green Lands and Castles





Since I started watching the Outlander series, my passion to know Scotland increased. Its green lands, its lakes, the rains and the infrastructure of its castles are the images that attract my attention to this specific country. Scotland is one of the countries that makes up the United Kingdom, and is located on the Island of Great Britain.

An important fact of the culture of Scotland, is a musical instrument called “bagpipe”, specifically the bagpipes of the Highlands, I imagine that they have heard it more than a moment, and together with their music we also associate a skirt that dresses the man who plays the bagpipe.

I will also tell you about the political movement that originated in Scotland, they called themselves the Jacobites, and this was intended to put a Scottish king back on the throne of the United Kingdom. Despite the riots, they never achieved victory against England.

One of the places I want to know is Inverness Castle, which overlooks Loch Ness, perhaps with the intention of searching for Nessie, the monster that lives there.

  1. Wow! You know about the Jacobites--Yes, they wanted a Stuart king (this dynasty during the 17th Century). Technically, the Jacobites are opposed to the current family on the British throne.
