Scotland, the symphony of human creations and nature’s bounties

Scotland, the name itself evokes the images of a beautiful area with lakes and valleys dotted with architectural masterpieces. Beautiful castles are there that are still in perfect condition and are among the most visited places in Britain. Even though Scotland is one of the most modern places in the world, it has maintained its old world charm and you can see streets buzzing with activities next to the old style of architectural marvels. Its museums have rare gems from across the world and in some quarters it is believed that they are safer there than in their native countries.
