Next stop, Scotland part 3
St Andrews Castle, Scotland
St Rule’s Tower at St Andrews Cathedral
Built in the 11th century, 33m tall. Feels way taller & more harrowing when you’re inside climbing every one of those tiny death-defying circular stone steps.
There’s always someone in costume at a castle.
I like that they encourage you to touch this particular display. We don’t usually get the chance to touch any exhibition pieces, and I’m a tactile person.
Exhibition about the Nine Worthies, Stirling Castle, Scotland
I typically don’t go for exhibitions, but this was incredibly fascinating. My favourite exhibition of all the castles
Ceiling of Queen’s Inner Hall, Stirling Castle
In order to get to Doune Castle you had to follow a path, pass through three gates, and go through the woods.

New Lanark
UNESCO World Heritage site. Visitors won’t find a rural village countryside here; instead, the buildings & design reflect the onset of the Industrial Revolution.
