Scotland - Edinburgh

Scotland is an amazing country with it's super unique elements.
The famous view from Calton Hill, probably the most photographed spot in whole Edinburgh.

Like in all British countries, in Scotland also the royal red post boxes are common

The number plates are as in all UK territories, white for the front plate and yellow for the back.

The main public transport is double decker

And like in London the taxi is operated by special stylish cars
The view from the double decker's second deck
Strange things are happening in Scotland.
There are Scottish pounds issued by different banks with different designs, which will not be accepted in England, but English pounds will be accepted in Scotland.

Scots are still questioning the Brexit

Edinburgh

The capital of Scotland is a complete positive surprise.
The bus stations are facing backwards to the street, which is perfect for providing shelter during winds.

Scottish kilts are on display everywhere
The traditionally dressed musicians are playing national music
 The traffic signs are super similar to US ones

Edinburgh is overlooked by a majestic Edinburgh castle.
There is a law which prohibits construction of any building obscuring the view of Edinburgh castle.
The architecture of Edinburgh is fantastic, the view to old town.

 The most famous 5 star hotel of Edinburgh, favorite spot for stay of celebrities

The streets of Edinburgh are very cozy

And stylish

The main street in old town
Greyfriars bobby is a Scottish Hachiko, which stayed loyal to his master forever.

Another cozy view scene in old town 
Edinburgh is home to the last Royal Yacht, which is one of the tourist traps
