Glasgow

Rate: 1, Required time: 4-6 hours (if any at all)

The worst town during our travel, there is nothing to see nor to do here, it looks like Frankfurt  a business city. It was the only place where we came back to the hotel at 8 pm. Fortunately the hotel rooms in Hilton Grosvenor are large and beautiful. However for the 1st time here we saw the Scottish pounds released by private banks: Royal Bank of Scotland, Halifax bank of Scotland, Clydesdale Bank (they are accepted in Scotland equally with English pounds).

Glasgow Main Square

Loch Lomond, Loch Katrin

Rate: 8. Required time: 4-6 hours

These are 2 lakes and if you visit Lomond you should also walk along Katrin (you can take an ATV for this puprose). We took one of the most beautiful pictures here and I had an impressive  road adventure at this place: walking in the forest I got into a masch and had to wash my shoes without taking them off.

Stirling Castle

Rate: 5. Required time: 2 hours
Unfortunately the House of Scottish Stewart dynasty  is  not of great interest today. Though  it is  fully preserved outside none of the interior details can be found here as there was a hospital in this building during  the Second World War. However there is a stunning view on  the surrounding valley from the castle.
