Scotland covers an area which makes up over one third of Great Britain; it is part of the UK with borders to England in the south, the Atlantic Ocean to the north and west and the North Sea to the east. The capital city of Scotland is Edinburgh, which is one of the largest financial centres to be found in Europe. Although Scotland is part of the United Kingdom, it has its own government; the Kingdom of Scotland was formed in 1707, making Scotland an Independent state.
There are five international airports in Scotland these being Inverness airport, Glasgow Prestwick airport, Aberdeen airport, Edinburgh airport and Glasgow International airport. Scotland is also a gifted with a great road system, featuring motorways and major trunk roads into almost every area of the country, along with an expansive rail system.
The largest city to be found in Scotland is Glasgow; it is also the third most highly populated city in the UK. Shortly after the Industrial Revolution, Glasgow became a world centre for shipbuilding and heavy engineering, and during Victorian times Glasgow was recognised as being the second most important industrial city in the entire British Empire. Glasgow makes a great choice of location from which to explore the rest of Scotland, especially if you choose to rent your own vehicle, as the weather in Scotland can be extreme even in summer months. There are a host of interesting sites and points of interest to be found within day’s drive of Glasgow, making it a great place from which to take day trips or excursions.
Possibly the most well-known place close to Glasgow is Loch Lomond. This is the largest natural lake to be found anywhere in the British Isles, being 24 miles long and half a mile across at its widest point. In recent years Loch Lomond has been incorporated into the Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park, and in a recent survey of the UK it was named the 6th greatest natural feature of Great Britain.
Loch Lomond has a whole host of activities available to the visitor; the famous Loch Lomond Golf Club hosts many national and international events each year including the Scottish Open. Due to its incredible scenery and outstanding natural beauty, Loch Lomond has become a favourite boating area; the lake is available for use for all kinds of boating from kayaking through to inland cruising. In recent years the National Park Authority has attempted to reach some form of equilibrium with regards to balanced use of Loch Lomond between land-based tourism and water users, the result of this has been that in many areas of Loch Lomond a speed limit has been imposed of no more than 10 km per hour, in other areas of the Lake this speed limit raises to 90 km per hour.
One of the major sporting events in the Scottish calendar is the Scottish Rally; this popular event has taken place within Dumfries in south-west Scotland for the last 12 years. The rally forms one of the rounds of the Scottish Rally Championships with its headquarters at Dumfries Ice Bowl. Several other major international and national rallies take place in Scotland each year including the Five of Clubs Championship, the Brick and Steel Ecosse 205 Championship and the Scottish Borders Rally Championship.
Another site of interest suitably close to Glasgow is Stirling Castle. Although it is unclear as to when this castle was originally constructed, historical records seem to imply that it was some time during the early 12th century. The castle we see today is believed to have been built sometime between the late 1370s and the mid 1700s, as we can see there is a certain amount of ambiguity regarding how this castle actually evolved. Due to the extended period that this castle was under development it is a strange mixture of architectural styles, and is deemed to be one of the most interesting historical sites to visit within Scotland. People visiting by car will be pleased to know that there is ample free parking for visitors, along with public toilets, a restaurant, gift shop and a new exhibition centre available for private hire.
For something a little closer to Glasgow; perhaps a visit to the Museum of Transport is in order, of great interest to anybody fascinated by transportation through the ages, especially those with a passion for automobiles. The Museum was founded in 1965 and houses a collection of Scottish transport memorabilia including examples of Scottish made cars, as well as some of the only surviving exhibits of the Albion, Aarrol Johnson and Argyll brand motorcars. Another major highlight of the Museum is the Clyde Room, which features 250 scale replicas of ships that were either constructed on or did commerce on the River Clyde. One of the most interesting exhibits to be found in Museum of Transport is the oldest surviving pedal cycle in the world.
As we can see Scotland is an intriguing place, offering the visitor a myriad of interesting places that they can explore, especially suited for people who decide to avail themselves of a hire car for the duration of their stay, allowing them to explore the many wonders of Scotland from the comfort of their own vehicle.
