. In fact, it used to be the king's palace of Scotland, which played an important role in British history. Queen Mary of Scotland and James VI also lived in this castle. This castle is a landmark in Scotland and even Great Britain. It has witnessed many wars and historical movements in Scottish history. Some people call it the Scottish brooch, which fully shows its historical position and importance.

stirling castle was a very famous royal castle in the 12th century. In the history of Scotland, no matter the story about war and peace or the story about T's imperial power, it is related to this castle. Without this castle, Wallace would have commanded the famous Battle of Stirling Bridge in 1297. "Braveheart" is there a sense of sight again?

There is a free map for admission to Stirling Castle. Every place in it has a detailed introduction to the historical mission. If you take a slow tour, it is recommended to stop at 2 o'clock.

On the way from Glasgow to Williamsburg, you will pass through Romon. Lake Lomond is not as famous as Loch Ness, but it is the largest freshwater lake on the island of Great Britain. The lake is clear and transparent, and looks like a mirror. It is a famous British holiday resort, where you can stroll, ride a bike, take a cruise and row a boat. There are highland cows, black-faced sheep and white swans with their necks sunken into love by the lake Lomond.

This ice cream shop is said to be the punching place in online celebrity. Two rainbows lined the streets to welcome me. Hey, hey, I haven't seen a rainbow for many years in China, where smog is rampant. I'm excited ~

Passing by Sister Mountain, I said there is a story about the McDonald's family, that is, the McDonald's family who went to the United States to make fast food.

Glen Coe Gorge was originally the private property of McDonald's family. The McDonald's family originated in Skye Island, and later went to the United States to make a fortune by making fast food when they had some money. The McDonald's family was a Scottish aristocrat at that time, and there was a ravine on the back of Sister Mountain, which was originally used by McDonald's family to hide stolen sheep. Sometimes Tibetans avoided the enemy.

There was a massacre in the Canyon. In the 17th century, King James II of England, the last Catholic king in British history, tried his best to maintain Catholic rule in Britain and promote feudal monarchy, which harmed the interests of the emerging bourgeoisie and was opposed by the broad masses of English people, who believed in Protestantism at that time.

In 1688, when a new bourgeois aristocrat staged a coup, James II was ousted, and his daughter Mary and her husband William (both of whom were Protestants) became the new king of England.

William James II fled to France, but at that time, some Scots still believed in Catholicism, so they all supported James II. Those who supported James II formed an alliance, which was called "Party II" in history.

In order to ensure his rule in Scotland, the new king of England gave the Scottish nobles a deadline, and all the nobles were required to swear allegiance to the new king and queen at the magistrate within a specified time. The McDonald family delayed going to the local official until the last day, but unfortunately, the local official had something to go out that day. The McDonald family thought, it's not my fault for missing the deadline. The king and queen were kind enough not to kill them, but their gang, in order to curry favor with them, drove 3 McDonald family members to the Coe Valley to be killed. This was the Coe Valley massacre

Continue to drive to Fort William, which is not a castle but a town. From the map, it is thin in shape. It is located in the west of Scotland, north of Linnhe Lake.

It's called Fort William because William III once built a stone castle here, but now things have changed, and the town still uses the name
