Scotland is a popular tourist destination. To me, the main attraction of Scotland is its castles.

The landscape in Scotland is more dramatic than in England and the castles look very impressive there.

Visiting Edinburgh Castle was an unforgettable experience. Its location is remarkable - it was built on top of a volcanic rock. Luckily, the volcano has never disturbed the Castle.

But it has been seriously damaged by people. Like most ancient castles, Edinburgh Castle was built as a fortress. It has been involved in many military conflicts, ruined and restored several times. The oldest part of the Castle dates from 12th century, the other parts were constructed and reconstructed later.
