  • The Glenfinnan Gathering is one of many Highland Games and Gatherings where Scots celebrate their heritage and traditions. It's also a comfortable homecoming for many. Glenfinnan is particularly notable because it is the site where Bonny Prince Charlie came ashore to rally the Highlanders to the cause of the Jacobites, which was to end disastrously at the Battle of Culloden. Events include the heavy events like the tossing of the caber, bagpipe and dancing competitions, tug of war, as well as the White Cockade Society which gathers to swear allegiance to the Jacobite cause, with a toast on the site where Prince Charlie stood. Also shown is dancing at the Glenfinnan Hotel in the evening.

  • Heather covers the hills around Corgarff Castle in the Cairngorms National Park in Scotland. Corgarff Castle is located in Aberdeenshire, north-east Scotland. The castle was built in the mid 16th century by the Forbes of Towie. In 1571 it was burned by their enemy, Adam Gordon of Auchindoun, resulting in the deaths of Lady Forbes, her children, and numerous others, and giving rise to the ballad Edom o Gordon. After the Jacobite risings of the 18th century, it was rebuilt as a barracks. It is now in the care of Historic Scotland and is open to the public.<br />
<br />
Heather blooms in the late summer and is the ideal habitat for grouse in Scotland, making it essential to the economics of estates that depend on grouse shooting for part of their income. <br />
<br />
The park was established in 2003 and is now the largest National Park in Great Britain.<br />

  • Towering high above the Dee Valley and the bustling town of Llangollen is Castell Dinas Bran, one of Britain's most spectacular sites. A rugged, foreboding pinnacle, the hillock was the ideal spot to erect a castle but the native Welsh princes of Powys occupied the hilltop for only a few decades.
