About Scotland |
What is Scotland?
Scotland is small in term of population, but in term of what it has contributed to the world, it's huge. Scottish Enlightenment, leaded by David Hume and Adam Smith, among others, awakened Europe from dark age. Scottish Invention, James Watt's steam engine in particular, sparked the industrial revolution and the greatness of British Empire. Scottish scientists contributed to the world from the theory of Electromagnetics to Dolly the Sheep. Winston Churchill's quote 'Of all the small nations on earth, perhaps only the ancient Greeks surpass the Scots in their contribution to mankind.' may best reflect what Scotland is.
Scotland is the northernmost of the four constituents that make up the United Kingdom. With its size of one-third and its populations of only 10% of the those of the UK, it is amazing that two Scotland's cities, Edinburgh and Glasgow, are both the second largest financial centres and tourist destinations in the UK. Whereas Scotland's third and forth largest city, Aberdeen and Dundee, are the oil capital of Europe and a leading Europe's technology city, the city of Stirling offers a rich and proud Scottish history and Scotland's Highland is renowned for being the most beautiful natural attraction in Britain.
About Scotland:
Scotland is a long-history and proud nation and is one of the constituents of the UK. Historically, evidences show the first group of people settled down in Scotland around a thousand years ago. The earliest record about Scotland was written by Roman when Roman ruled the parts of current England and Wales.
For a thousand year, Scotland has a long and complicated relationship with England. Shown through the famous movie “Braveheart” was the England attack on Scotland which ended at the victory of Robert the Bruce over England at the battle of Bannockburn.
While Thai often mistakenly think of Scotland as a part of England, the fact is that the King of Scotland was the first King who ruled both countries. There had been several attempts to merge Scotland and England in the past. In 1603, the two countries started to share a same monarch when the Scottish King, James VI, became the King of England and consequently the first King of Great Britain; their parliaments were still separate entities however. Eventually, the Acts of Union 1707 resulted in the dissolution of both parliaments and created the first parliament of Great Britain.
The six cities of Scotland
Scotland’s world-heritage capital city, Edinburgh , is one of the most popular tourist destinations, only second from London. Scotland’s largest city, however, is Glasgow, the heart of Scottish economy which dates back to the time of James Watt and Shipbuilding centre, when it was considered the second city of the British Empire
While Edinburgh and Glasgow have been contributing to the economies as the two largest cities in Scotland, Aberdeen , the 3rd largest Scottish city, plays an important role in British economy by being the oil industry capital of Europe. Other important cities also include Stirling - a former capital of the Kingdom of Scotland, a centre for government, retail, and light industry; Dundee - the city of jute, jam, and journalism, which account for 10% of the British digital entertainment industry; finally, Inverness , the only city in the highland which is said to be the fastest growing city in Western Europe.

Weather in Scotland?
The east coast tends to be cool and dry, the west coast milder and wetter. July and August (Summer) are normally the warmest months, average temperature of 15-19C/60-68oF.
The long summer days (18-21 hours/ day) give you more time to enjoy yourself.
In autumn, birches, rowans and bracken bring a riot of yellow & red, or golden brown, to the glens and hillsides. Wherever you visit you will be rewarded with breathtaking colours.
Winter can be wild yet exhilarating and, with the right clothing and a bit of preparation, can be enjoyable as any other season. In the winter the mountains take on a completely different appearance and assume an arctic and alpine character.
Spring give Scotland another feeling of lively activities after a freezing winter. Flowers take turn and even compete with each others to attract people and insects with their various-coloured bulbs. Again, it is usually by May that the garden in Scotland are places for many people to meet up and spend their free time outdoor under the kindest sunshine
