I have never been to Scotland, but it seems that my life will take me there soon. So I have started this topic to learn something new and interesting. If you are willing to write something, you are welcomed.
Scotland
Scotland reminds me beautiful scenes of highlands in the ( Mel Gibson) Braveheart movie.
I would love to stay overnight in a castle in Scotland. It would be amazing.
I've never been there but I really want to visit Scotland. 
It's heard that it's a beautiful place and people there are serious but kind.

Scotland is really on my list of regions to visit. The history of the castles, the tasting of real whisky, the typical music... But you have to keep in mind that during your holiday it could rain quite hard.
I don't mind. I like the rain.
Ooh yes, rain could be very refreshing. It creates a nice smell in nature... But nevertheless I don't like rain on holiday during the day. If you're walking, you get cold, you get wet, you want to go back to the hotel or you have to stay inside. So give me the sun please when I'm coming to Scotland !!

So give me the sun please when I'm coming to Scotland !! I would love to go to scotland to see all the castles and such. Once i was in a camp in deutschland(germany), and there were some people from scotland there. I am from canada, but anyway they were really nice. It was funny though cause they named me cowboy lol. So for a weeklong camp i was known as cowboy. Anyway, scotland is near the top of my list of places to go. Already been to germany, switzerland, and austria.
^Have you been in any German castle? 
Scotland has lots of real beautiful scenery, but some of the towns/cities are run down & poor in places. There is high unemployment in these areas too.
Edinburgh is a brilliant city, but the mountainous areas like Skye, the Highlands and Cairngorm regions are super....definitely worth a visit, but do a bit of research before going, so you don't waste time while you're there looking for places to visit/things to do.

Yah i was in a German castle.
I can't remember the name of it, or the name of the town, but it was really cool.
The castle was like a 30 minut walk up the side of a mountain. It was so amazing.
The view was fantastic, and there was also a suspention bridge looking a few hundred feet straight down. There was a guided tour throughout most of the castle aswell, and they explained most of the things in it. Very cool, if you ever get a chance you should take it.

I will.
That's amazing. I'm glad because you could do that!!!Since I am part Scottish, I would love to visit there as well to see some of the old castles, and check out the areas where clan MacCloud is from.
I have had lots of friends visit there and they all loved it.
I wonder what the current air fare to Scotland is....

The best thing about Scotland is the people. Very welcoming and like to chat. I was once working in Edinburgh and ended up going out for a night with a group of people that I met in thier local pub. It was a great night and they were all really friendly - even though I'm English! There not very good at football though(!)
Scotland is a great place
We play golf each year and travel the UK
Always happy when its time to go to Scotland

It´s been a long time since I´ve visited scotland...
Edinburgh castle is definetely worth a visit. There are two very different parts: the highlands (stark, the typical rough country) and the lowlands (old, cultured, history dripping out of every stone).
So, you can pick and choose, whether you want to enjoy solitude or like raucios party

It's a great country. Try to get up to the Highlands or even out to the Islands like Skye. The people are very friendly, and prices are reasonable. The food is quite traditional in most places, but they have excellent confectionary and good fish are always in abundance.
