1.7. – 6.7.2016 United Kingdom Scotland Abroad

Charming incredibly green earth. So one could easily describe Scotland; country, which is located in the northern part of the island of Great Britain. In fact, there are much more and so simple description for this diverse country is completely inadequate. Many of us will certainly remember kilts, whiskey, golf, pipers and beautiful world famous lake. But there are also seen deep green valleys, wetlands, mountains covered with interesting kneeling and heather, huge castles and lots of sheep. Scotland so typical weather changes are rampant. But despite the constant change of weather Scotland is a fabulous country; especially the incredible combination of green meadows and blue lakes give the country an unprecedented unique charming character.
