Heritage of Scotland
Scotland is a country blessed with beautiful nature and a rich historical past. It is the country of philosophers like Adam Smith or poets like Roberts Burns and Sir Walter Scott. The writer of Ivanhoe was an intensely romantic person and made the history and traditions of Scotland famous again at a moment in time when they ran the risk of being forgotten. The kilt and the pipes became known once more, and even English kings, not always kind to their neighbors in the north, began to wear the traditional Scottish garments. Sir Walter Scott was so in love with his motherland that he built a romantic castle as a residence in the Borderlands. The architectural style is a mixture of different historical periods. It became the prototype for similar houses around Great Britain and the world in the 19th century.
Discovering Inveraray Estate
Inveraray Castle is situated close to Loch Fyne in the mighty Highlands of Scotland. The building is part of a large Estate belonging to the Dukes of Argyll, a branch of the Campbell family. The castle was built in the middle of the 18th century but was remodelled in large parts after a fire in 1877. In 2019, Inveraray still belongs to the Campbell family but is open to visitors as well. Part of the Estate is also a beautiful garden, a forest, and a cattle farm with highland cows.

Copenhagen in Late Summer
Founded as a settlement by the Vikings in the 10th century, Copenhagen grew exponentially in the following centuries, becoming the capital of Denmark in 1416. The inner city was destroyed several times by the plague and fires and was rebuilt in a neoclassic style during the so-called Danish Golden Age in the early 19th century. Although many other parts of Copenhagen are modern and somewhat functionalist, the inner city still represents the glory and richness of these past times.
