VISIT SCOTLAND

A kilt is a knee-lenght garment worn by men in Scotland. Although it was common to wear them in the 16th century, nowadays they are used on formal ocassions such as weddings. Have a look at the pictures. What do you think? Like it or hate it?

  Tartan ( cuadros escoceses) is usually the pattern used in kilts. It is said that men don't wear any underwear. There is no rule that states a Scotsman should wear nothing under his kilt, but it has become a tradition on his own.

  Haggis is a traditional Scottish dish containing the heart,liver and lungs of a sheep.

  Deep-fried Mars bars!!Did you know that this dish originated in Scotland?

  The Fringe, which is considered to be the world's largest arts festival, takes place in Edinburgh every August for 3 weeks. You can see/enjoy paintings, books, street musicians, films, comedy, magic tricks, music...and much more.

   Scottish Gaelic is a Celtic ( celta) language native to Scotland.
