United Kingdom: A Quick Sneak Peek on Scotland
  • 5 years ago
Among the green verdure and rolling hills, where the bagpipers play a patriotic melody is a small country of Scotland full of fascinating stories: Glasgow is the largest city in Scotland, but it is Edinburgh in the east part which is the capital of the country. Rich in myths and legends, the national animal of the country is fittingly a unicorn. One can find the specimens while strolling across the quite humbling city of Edinburgh on the walls of Holyrood Palace. When Fringe Fever, the world's Largest Art festival is around the corner of this quiet city of Edinburgh, it transforms into a delightful fest. This festival features 2500 shows in more than 200 venues and more than 1 Million tickets are sold for this event. Smart Gingerheads: A study in 2014 said that Scotland is the most highly educated nation in Europe. We use the term 'Gingerhead' for the red-haired, and the red-haired Scottish club get together to have their own "GINGER PRIDE" march in Edinburgh.
